The Stance wheels, where are they made? They look great, but the thought of putting a Chinese wheel on the GS is cringing

My Audi A4s wheels were made in China and never had a problem with them. An OEM wheel, btw.

To me the Stance is a copy of the vossens, but it doesnt look as nice. I am swinging towards the Fsport.. Have you looked at the 19" LFA's on ebay?

OP, are you going to get the staggered fitment set? The F-Sport wheels come in Front & Rear sizes.

If you go staggered, the OE fitment would be:

Front: 225/40 19
Rear: 255/35 19
(These are also the stock sizes for the IS-F, btw, and the same sizes that are on my IS-F wheels... on my GS during the warm months.)

Go with Conti DWS tires and bam... job done.

I'm also going to have to vote for the F-Sport, these all nice rims, but the f-s just stands out so much more. They're really nice, I say go for those.
