IMHO, the stock F-Sport wheels look better than all of those.

I like the VFS1's. I wonder if 19" x 11" on rears and x 9.5 on fronts would look "too" fat?

Can't find any online configurator yet for Vossen + Rc350.

Thanks for the replies...

Been doing some research...I believe most Vossen rims have a clearance issue with our brakes.. The only solution is to add spacers.. Loved the look of CV-5 and VFS-1 on the RC ... But let's see.. I might pull the plug later on..

None of them. The stock wheels look much better IMHO. Be careful on the spacers that they leave plenty of thread on the lug bolts.

I've loved the CV7 in silver polish, it's a must to lower the car.

I too prefer the stock as the increased side wall helps with ride quality.
