    Dude you're insane. $2000? I don't think they're that good. You'd be much better off with a lightweight set of Volks or SSRs for a comparable price.

    I went the aftermarket route before and I just find the OEM look more appealing. I was thinking about purchasing the V just for the wheels haha, but they didn't have any at my dealership.

    Considering these wheels cost about $400 each at the dealership, and I priced out the tires at about 600 on tire rack, + center caps, and another 350 or so for TPMS sensors, mount, balance and tax probably looking at total over 2700. I thought I'd save a little and offer somebody $2000.

    Anyways, I think I might have a lead on a local seller. Thanks for the advice though.

    ^ I can respect that you like the OEM look better. Just didn't want you to get ripped off.

    The 17" OEM rim is 21lbs. So by no means is it particularly light or aerodynamic, compared to what you can get in the aftermarket market. (aftermarket market?)

    Get the v wheels if you can I think they look great on this car! Yeah one of the reasons I bought a v was the wheels! But I like everything else that goes with it!
