they don't look like they would match a 7th gen very well. maybe the hatch, but not a coupe or sedan

edit: i say this because i think these only come in 15"

i would have said battle, but they only come in 5-lug, so they dont fit on the 7thGen... those are the ones i wanted.

so my second choice for you is sub-zeros. color depends on what color car you have.

its ur choice on how you want ur car too look like....personally i would go for the sleeper look and go with the slip stream since they're light weight and looks like the spoon wheels....

If your car is silver, a good-looking setup is the Rota Attack in bronze--these are the Volk Racing Grams replicas. Since they are a dark shade of bronze, they contrast well with the silver. Another good-looking wheel for our cars is the Sub-zero. The Slipstreams are ok but a little too plain, IMO.

Edit: PM Grey; he has the 17" Rota Attack rims in bronze.

I have the rota subzeros in silver with the polished lip. They are only 15s and each wheel and tire together weigh 30lbs. That's a reduction of at least 10lbs. I'd bet money that a light weight wheel combo is the best bolt-on mod you can do for our cars.

I have had the rotas for about 6 months and am very happy with them. The roads here in charlotte are pretty rough and they have held up fine. I don't think a 20lb konig rim would be any stronger.

I'll second that. Reducing unsprung weight is one of the best things you can do.
