Default Thoughts for new wheels?

I was wondering if u guys had any designs u liek for going on my car? Maybe a cheap version of the new RS4 wheel? I am keeping my car b/c my insurance is going up, it held up in the accident well, and i have a few other reasons, mostly that we cant afford a new one right now. I also plan on new ecodes (with HID), coilovers (that i can get cheap from a friend) and maybe a s/c towards teh beginning of next year (to see if mechanical engineering would be a good major for me taht way my dad will let me do it and maybe even chip in a little. )

Yeah, koseis are super lightweight and 239 a wheel for 17x8s. Try tirerack for those. Or you could get some Porsche replicas...

or some RH wheels...

or check out the AZ classifieds... where there's always a good deal.

Your plan sounds good. Just follow up on it.

And people won't make fun of you as much anymore for flip flopping like John Kerry with a slinky.
Seriously, an S/C'd 2.8 would be a very cool car to have.

Yea i know, and its very relaible and its more pwoer than i would get from a 1.8T with a K04! Its just not first on the list. Wheels and then coilovers. Chassis before power.
