DO NOT put those wheels on your car man- go get some sweet rims from ebay or tirerack- u can easily get some for around 1500 or so...

those wheels are not that great and are a pain to clean becuase they are so intricate. i agree to go with tirerack, they have some good selection there

well i thought they were a deal...$1050 wheels + tires mounted and balanced shipped.....

tirerack is really expensive - imo

I would go with the light color if my car were calypso.

I was trying to get a friend to buy these for her jetta, recently I saw a guy in my neighborhood with the same ones.... they really looked pretty good, for relatively cheap wheels. Get the silver though. I would recommend that you buy the rims without tires..... cuz what they give you are poo pooo Nankang or something along those lines, spend the extra bucks and get some good performance tires (ebay is the way for tires). However, I am also recommending looking on ebay for a sweeter deal.... remember new rims aren't new once they are out of the box, and you can get sweet deals if youre patient. I got my 18's scratch and dent from discount tire for $330 all 4 delivered. Good luck.
