HAHAHA!!! I had to put the rocks there...I wasn't about to take any risks on letting the wheels roll away!
They are 17x7.5 with a +40 offset. I just hope my car is low enough on H-Sport springs to pull this look off.
I guess we'll see.

ah, thanks for the correction, GLI. GTI's of that era got the ever famous two piecers...
i put on 205/50's. since theyre so skinny i knew i couldnt stretch anything good looking on them so i went for a beefy tire. you can see in my second photo that the tires bulge a bit but it looks good and performs well with no problems/issues. i'm happy with them.

Yup. Its the Blitz Technospeed Z1's 17x7 38 offset. I found them locally on craigslist for a great price as they retail for about $2400.
