Those are pretty nice. I guess it depends on how much $$$. They kinda remind me of Porche style wheels.

Those do look like my 91 Coupe rims. Sorry, I hate my rims (I want a set of TII or GTUs rims) so I have to say pass.

those are nice, and would look good ona fc that if slightly lowered.
if you pick them uo, go alittle wider when 205.
like 245 in the rear or something.
205 is honda type sizes and would the make car look narrow.
i like them though.

definitely has the porsche look to it but would be much more so if they were another inch wider and fitted on a car with coilovers. what color is the car?? black or white are the only colors I can think of that would look great with those wheels...

They are kind of heavy according to www.wheelsweights.net 19 lbs for a 15 inch rim. 17s will probably be around 27, but that is just a guess.
