I like how the OZs look like a gravel wheel, but at 18" (gravel rally wheels are usually 15" or 16") it kinda just looks like an old German hub cap

Gotta agree the 18" will make it look a little weird

Edit:

I like the Enkei PCD


Or in the thats weird but I like it category the OZ 45th Anniversary in white


Or damn it all to hell Tarmac F40s

I like the concept but not the execution. In a somewhat similar style I really like the Sparco Terras on a Focus ST but it looks like they only come in up to 17s and won't clear the brakes on the RS.

Ya, not sure about the Enkei's but I have seen those white 45th anv wheels on a Fiat 500 Abarth with red mud flaps and I love em! The fifteen52s are a little played out imho, too many Ken Block fan boys with them already.

Well...I got the mud flaps at least. I'm looking at maybe getting a 235/40 or 245/40 on there, which should make it "taller" and give more sidewall to make it look "gravelly" lol

Just got my car back from the body shop today. It was in for repairs after my neighbor backed into me.

It was a long week of waiting. The car looks great though. Very happy to have it back.
