Default Wheels....

...I am no photochop expert but what do you think? They are Centerline telstar wheels. I like them but I don't know if they will fit the K properly, plus they might be a little too flashy for the car.

Maybe I'll just wait till I have a TT 360 with RWD

Also they would probably be 15x7 which is possibly too wide? Too bad they don't have a 16x6.5.

All depends what size tire. I've got a set of crabs that are 15x6.5 and i wish they were wider, the 225s are definitely to wide.

Those wheels look pretty good, you won't get props from ricers, which is definitely a good thing.

Yeah I like them because they make me think of a souped up Muscle car, only problem is my car isn't a muscle car, and it certainly isn't fast, yet.

I could definitely go for some lighter autox rims for my car, but the way i figure it, i'd rather have all the engine work and suspension stuff done before i drop the money on wheels.

I agree with ya but sometimes I like to think I can do everything at once, which I certainly cannot. I just got curious to see what they would look like. Hell I might even consider them down the road a year, assuming I at least have a special little something sitting in the garage on a engine stand

Or even better a special little something sitting in the engine bay

get 15x3.5 for the rears.. heh..
What would be the appropriate amount of backspacing for FWD? I assume it would be less than most normal RWD cars need. I bet I could fit based on the fact that my body has big fenders that flare outward at the top, unlike most FWD cars where the fender well tends to be close to flush with the wheel. My current wheels are within the top of the fender at least a inch, probably two.

They have a set of 15x4"s but I would still stick to 7"ers on the back because I would use it more as a street car.
