Are these something that would be ordered from the dealer?

Any price estimates?

I was thinking to go up to 17" and even maybe 18" wheels from my current stock 16" 5-stars .. but after seeing ZAMIR's 15" rig (see pic) ... I am sold on smaller wheels. And the performance and comfort benefits are a big payoff.

>>Went to the dealer yesterday hoping to look at the JCW wheels live. Not available, not yet released in the USA though the parts man had ordered two sets.

The initial relase date for the JCW wheels was March 1st. I think there's a delay in the shipping process from Germany.

On this car on the other hand they look fantastic ...

I think it is just the white color ones that look too distracting

Ditto! White 18" is deceptively overwhelming, whereas the silver looks exceptional! Is that car lowered? Or is that the effect of the 18" wheels?
