I believe they call them the Z series. They are one of my favorites. I have it down between OZ Superleggerra, Abt Z and Centerline RPM.

-17" tires cost less
-17" rims cost less
-17" combo isnt as "stiff" as 18"
-17" tires have more rubber, therefore it wont be as prone to bent rims as 18"

hey bryan why arent you asleep yet? its 130!
anyways i'm not gonna get 19's. too expensive for me and not practical for my daily driving anyways. plus most people look and think my rims are 19's anyway. http://www.clubb5.com/images_forum/biglaugh.gif

Damn it... Bryan, now why do you have to tempt me with 18's. My two main concerns with getting 18's is that they will be too stiff and bending them. I don't want to drive like a granny to save my rims. Now Schmove drives nice and slow...heheh (just kidding Ed... no I am not)

jedi--get 18's....everyone who first got 17's eventually upgraded to 18's. Don't get me wrong, i love my 17 borbet E's (which some people think are 18's), but I think you'll LOVE 18's. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/embeer.gif
I bet Ed gets 19's within a year or so....who wants to bet? I'll bet my tt antenna on it! http://www.clubb5.com/images_forum/biglaugh.gif

Bryan,
Now I am thinking about 18's again.. lol. Oh well, it wont be until next february when I get my next bonus. For now, all I am getting is my neuspeed/bilsteins shocks and my giac chip.

ha dont tempt me bryan! i might cave in and get 19's http://www.clubb5.com/images_forum/crazy.gif
Get 18"....you will not be completely satisfied with 17s. Just get a STRONG wheel. Try and see if they have TUV certifications. They're generally a bit stronger than due to tougher standards.
You just gotta avoid small animal sized potholes http://www.clubb5.com/images_forum/biglaugh.gif

Pil--agree....I like my Borbet E 17's but there's not a day that goes by when I wonder about getting 18's.
Ed--what do u think your next wheel will be? Size and brand.
