Interesting. I thought the smallest width was an 8.5-9". Were they 17's or 18's? 17's I can see, but I dunno about the 18's.

i like the trak lite lineup motegi has

but the other rims are bleh ...

is it just me .. or do UNI-LUG rims look like ass and very cheap ? ... ive seen some nicely designed wheels that i REFUSE to buy simply because they have uni-lug .. and yes i know even some volks are designed that way ... you would never see me with those either

just my 2 cents

What the hell is a Uni-lug?

nindoo,

the LC5's didn't look right. I couldn't find a decent pic of them and the Photoshop looked pretty phoney since that pic up there looks like a CAD-pic.

uni lug = when a rim is drilled for dual fitment ... ie; 5x100/5x114.3 in the same rim .. meaning it has 10 holes...

Yes your right, I didn't do enough research before I posted back to you. Thats probably why tirerack only shows 18s and not 17s. The 17s I've seen are 17x9 like you say. So far I like the way the trackLites look.

Thanks for the info.

What color wheels look good on Galaxy grey?

Black, Gunmetal, Silver, Hypersilver, Hyperblack and Chrome. About the only color in my honest opinion, that doesn't look good would be bronze. It just doesn't stand out like I'd like it. The HFP's have that bronze look in certain lights and again, IMHO, look a bit bland on the GG.

U should flare the fenders and get the Tracklites. lol
