Wheel Directory: MB Octane 17x7.5 +40




Just got my new winter set up put on today! Got 17x7.5 +40 MB Octanes wrapped with 215/45/17 Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 Performance Winter tires. Was planning on plasti dipping the wheels black but with them on the car they are starting to grow on me in the alloy color. I will have to give it acouple days i guess haha . Sorry about the crappy phone pictures and dirty car, just snapped a few getting gas and some light bulbs from home depot!

Not bad at all! I had the same tires on a GTI i owned a few years back and i liked them a lot. I'm about to order a set of winter rubber myself as well, so i might have to give the dunlops another look.

How much did you spend on the package, if you don't mind me asking?

Well I got the wheels and tires off craigs list for $350 but two of the tires had bubbles so i bought two new ones from discount tire,
The two used ones have 9/32s left and the new tires come with 10/32s so they are like new. The wheels are seriously perfect condition
...its unbelievable. O and the two new tires ran about $300 mounted and all that jazz. Also had to buy new hubcentric rings...$5 a pop...
and some lugs, which also werent bad. So id say probably around $700 for the lot man.

They came off an audi tt

Nice! I've been checking craigslist every day for the past 2 weeks to see if i can scoop up a decent set of wheels and/or tires for a discount, but haven't found anything that caught my eye.

I'll keep looking, but I'm getting tempted to just get a new set from tirerack, or something.
