    Check everything twice... Offsets, PCD, width, tyre load rating, spigot rings (most aftermarket wont be 57.1), etc...

    Sure you want 17s Drew?

    Have only ever heard good things about Tirerack.

    FWIW I ran 17x7.5 ET32 on my R and they cleared my brakes just fine. check my thread to see what they look like.

    18s with width will be fugging dope

    the right 17s can look good on a mk4. but if your not retarted low they sometimes arent the best if you want something different

    I recently ordered wheels and tyres from Tirerack - from memory < $300 to ship; door to door in just over a week

    The tyres were Continental CSC3s in 215/45-17 @ $147 each - bloody cheap
