Sweet, thanks for the info!

This is a good idea. I am in the process of figuring out if I can afford the set of Volks I want right now or have to wait till next year. If I cant quite swing it yet I will do this. Looks good.

I appreciate all of the nice comments. It was definitely worth it. They look so much better than the stock silver 18-inch rims.
