Thanks. I really like the 16" Stock FD 5-spoke, but it isn't made in 17". I wanted 17s, so I bought the RPO2-Js because they resemble the stock 16 inchers.

Wow, those are 17's? In the pictures they look like 18's. They look sharp.

If I read your sig right, you don't have any ECU modification? That seems a little risky with your mods. Maybe I am missing something.
