My tC's new shoes :)

17x7 MB Wheels Boost
Gunmetal

Wrapped in BFGoodrich g-force T/A KDW 2

2 of them

haha, the best I could do with them next to my car...haha....remember, the car is pushing down on the stock ones so these tires do fit, they just have no weight on them

I didn't want 18s. I like the 17s for this car......but I also came from having a truck with 225/75/14s so 17s are HUGE to me...haha

I just liked this style and wanted to keep a stock look to the car. I'm excited about the rubber

Eh, it's my summer setup so they'll last me a good bit......I don't race much at all and if i do, i'll switch to my old rims/tires............winte time i'm getting Blizzarks on the stockers and might buy 2 rims and get drag radials to keep just for the track

Yup.....two pieces of cardboard and foam on the face of the rim. Hey, they got to me with 0 scratches so I don't mind. They also gave me a lifetime warranty against defects. The guys at Discount tire direct are great and very helpful.
