They've been sitting in my garage for the last 2 years...








1) Bad .. center caps are missing
2) Couldn't get 'em on cause my lugs didn't fit~~

These look like 17 but they're actually 19... should i even put these on ? what do you guys think ?

Yeah they are, but I believe he just has them in that position for visual purposes only. My vote is to NOT install them. Old school on a new school car.

It'll look good if you slam your car to the ground.

What size/offset are they?

Classic rim....I love them. A quick repolish and cleanup and they'll be fantastic.

No offense but they look a little beat so I wouldn't install them on such a nice new car. Also I cant understand why the OE 18's dont get any love, they are strong, lightweight, and also match the style of the car very nicely IMO.

very exspensive, But your welcome.

That's why you spend a couple hundred bucks to repolish them....
