This a good deal on RS6's?

I've found a set of Enkei RS6's

These are 17X7 and come with and Kuhmo Ecsta 205/40/17 Tires with about 500 miles on them!

minor scuffs on one wheel.
$600 shipped (possibly)

Should i do this guys? think i'll be happy. My brother says no, i should get an alarm first before i get any of this stuff, but what do you guys think? might not be another deal around.

205 is kinda narrow, a 215 or even 225 would look better and handle better and those are really low profile and would probably look funny on your car.... Save your money and get a wider/ taller set.... With a 40 profile tire, your asking to have those rims bent on a pothole. Besides seeing as how those are the most common rims ever.... save the money and get something original.










P.S. I'm selling my rims.... check my sig =) pm me if you're interested...

Just get whatever you like. If you like Rs6's get them. And it's a decent price.

See, already a better deal found

Don't get a scuffed rim with 205s, you'll be asking for trouble. That deal above is great if you want the RS6's.
