Wheel Directory: OEM Audi TT 17x7.5 +32
 So I would up getting these wheels for free with the purchase of the tires... ...found out they were 5x100 so I gave them a shot tonight  Specs: Audi TT Wheels Forged Aluminum 17x7.5" +32 offset 21.5lbs     Kinda meh about them... Going to use the BBS RK's I'm getting with these tires though. I've seen some pics of the "Fat Fives" painted in interesting colors though, LOL!  Reminds me... Do we have a FRS/BRZ "colored wheel" thread? Last edited by DarrenDriven; 05-11-2014 at 04:47 PM. |

 What I was thinking color wise, but I don't think I'll do it, LOL! They look pretty decent all black:

those look better on the boxey-style Euro's. these should never be anywhere near our cars, keep your stockers and paint them one color.

They're heavy for that size and they don't mesh with this car at all IMO.

Don't really like the look. Multi spoke and mesh wheels seem be my favorite for these cars.

Please no. Leave those to the VAG crowd. Not right on the 86.

ah man, I expected this to be a BRZ, dumped to the ground on bags with them on
very disappointed would have been a very unique look.

There is a reason you got them for free. These don't really match any car that well. Leave them off, in any color.
I vote  Simple test, cover the half that has the OEM wheels with your hand and look at the how the wheels affect the shape and attractiveness of the car. Then do the opposite, looking at the front wheels. You tell me which looks like the more expensive vehicle. They remind me of Cobalt/7th-gen Civic wheels. Cheap, but easy to clean.
