I combined topics for simplicity in the Wheel Directory. Same wheel/specs.

Those are Toyo P4P 235/35 -19. They ride surprisingly smooth compared to some other brands I had on a GTI in the same size.

I agree. That's pretty much my case. This car will live on the street. Some back road fun but no track time.

Very unique!

Did you specifically choose 18's because you prefer a bigger wheel, or have they still not yet released the 17" S7:F?

Thanks.

those are 19's, I prefer the bigger wheel coz of the FiveAd Aero Kit, kinda scared of scrapping it with smaller wheels. Im not sure if they did release the 17s.

I see where you're coming from, they're just so big. Come to think of it maybe they said they'd do a run of 18" S7:F wheels but nothing smaller. I really really really want a set in 17" diameter. Seeing yours in gunmetal just reinforce what a badass design it is.

Yeah, that's beautiful! Can't wait to see your car evolve once the Aero kit is installed.

Just one thing -- keep the orange turn signals. We love orange turn signals. They're safer too!

Orange will help soccer mom's in SUV's avoid hitting you.

Either way, good call on the S7:F wheel. What a beauty!
