Sport Edition D5

i was seeing a lot of reviews on tires with 17s and 18s and a lot of bad reviews. so i stuck with the 16s (for now) and they dont look too bad at all.

Not bad, in the future take other factors when looking at reviews. If available look at the location of the reviewer, and size of tire on wheel. I'm sure the 17s would have been ok for your car.


I'm almost sure that the majority of people rating the wheels bad were running a small profile tire, or used them as winter wheels.


Either way, enjoy them...they're a nice wheel

You'll certainly save MONEY on smaller rims and tires!

Where'd you buy 'em??

I was looking at some 17/18's Sport Editions on tire rack also....

The design on those are nice, but would look better if they were bigger. Size matters with these cars lol.

Time for a drop now!
