found you some sweet wheels
i’ll call around and see if any one has any stock anywhere
They look to be the same as HP Evos. A few guys I know run them on their Audis and have said good things to say about them. I would take a look at those seeing these are on back order…

yes i was looking at those but the offset is only 35-38 i need 45.
dont get me wrong those are very nice. but i dont want to run spacers
spacers push the wheel further out, like a lower offset…

18x5? Don’t you want to go a little wider than that?
dude why don’t you just hand over over your keys to the forum and just have them build your car for you.

Your stock wheels look awesome. I would not change for the sake of changing. And yeah yeah yeah, they’re heavy, blah blah, too narrow, blah blah. You’re car is always going to be heavy, big deal, and 7.5 aint wide at all, so it’s not worth it no matter how you color it.
You have a nice car, leave it be and enjoy it.

so im looking at these…
http://www.5zigenusa.com/w_sportsengine.html
plan on doing a staggerd setup, 18x7.5 in the front and 19 x 8.5 in the rear for a deeper dish. but im still debating the whole 19" thing.
sounds like you gotta be a little more careful around the curbs
unless you did it for an excuss to get new rims
from what i understand, he bought the car used. mayb they were like that when he bought it? one of my rims has curb rash and it wasnt from me.
good choice. i wanna say the staggered setup would look good, i’ve seen it on alot of other cars where it worked, go for it
