These are very nice. I'm not sure whether to get 16s or 17s for the track. I guess 16s are lighter and cheaper.

What size rs3 are you running on the 17 inch wheels
I like the ride of the 16's which will help when I get coil overs running costs will be slightly less and I got the wheels for 700 on eBay which is the cheapest I could find |

So these doesn't come with wheel caps and lug nuts. No issues using the stock lug nuts with these wheels? Your setup should be 7mm closer to the strut that stock. No clearance issues up front? How about center rings? Thanks.

I love the look of that wheel/tire combo! Makes the brakes look much better too!

Great choice! 16" is the best for tracking!

Where to find Motegi Traklite 16x7 50mm
I have a hard time finding these. I would be grateful if someone can point me to the right source to find these 12lb 16-inch wheels.
Thanks for your help. |
