    Wheel Choices(Black)

    Deciding on what rims to get, and I'm finding alot of what see to be good deals on ones like Flik, Excel etc...., but is the quality that bad? I'm thinking of going w/ a black rim w/ chrome or silver outer finish, are there a few that I should be looking into?

    Flik looks really tight with that finish!

    for the price, Flik wheels have a very good quality. Many people have them and I'm yet to hear a bad review of them. They aren't the lightest things in the world (except the TDRs) but they aren't the heaviest. Go with the Artics

    Sat's rims are tight, little over my budget though, think I may go for the Flik's looks like you can get a set w/ tires for under 1k. Wish they didnt have so many choices of finish though, what do you think would go best w/ Silver? Anthrasite, Black or Silver?

    If I go w/ the 18x8.5 can i go w/ a wider tire? there pkg comes w/ 225/40r18, should I go w/ that?

    Black on silver, I can almost convince myself that with the black wheels the black skirts don't look so bad.

    VtAudi,

    Call and check on your order in a day to see the status. I placed my order but was not informed that the tires I picked were on backorder. It would have sucked to wait 4 days and then call and find that out. Luckily they made up for it by upgrading the tires for the same price and I got mine in 5 days.
