Rich I like the Volks better, but only if you plan to lower it just a little....if not, the Kinesis look better at the height. either way, nice wheels.

I thought the Kinesis wheels looked sweet on your ride, but these Volks look even better. Nice choice!

Actually in person it is the exact opposite. The Volks look so much bigger in the wheel well that it looks filled up. The Kinesis because they are dark with a dark tire and dark inner fender liner make it look like there's a giant gap. There's no dropping the car with those Volks, with the Kinesis I could slam it.

Kinesis
17x7.5 +60 225/45/17 I need to call to make sure it's not a 17x8
17x9.0 +67 265/40/17

Volks
18x7.5 +50 225/40/18
18x8.0 +50 245/35/18

The tires sit exactly flush with the fender front and back with the Volks. I'll have problems if i lower it.



Which one of my IAA brothers will be next to post their wheel thread? It's going to be close.
