im buying a set of hankook ventus v12 evo k110’s. 225/45/18’s. These wheels are often used on the Benzos, but I like the style a lot. They remind me of the Eurolines or the AMG wheels(which seems to be a fit for vw’s). I am pretty sure that I want H&R springs, Bilstein HD shocks for the car. People that have those have said they are very good quality and ride nice. Then the next step is to measure for spacers and grab a set. Prolly like a 15-20 in the back and a 10-15 upfront and thats all.

i didnt need a story about Lorinser wheels. im well aware of what they are, and AMG and other M-B fitment wheels are mk5/audi fitment of 5x112 not mk4.
