Seems too skinny of a tire for a 9" wheel; i'd step up to a 245/255. I can understand that you want to save a good tire.

Yup... I know someone with a set of wheels he sent to fiske to be repaired and now he cannot get them back (I'ms sure he will once the dust settles) IMHO I would shy away from Fiske's until we know whether they will be resurected or **** canned...

Taste is a personal thing, but my .02 is there are better choices. Those wheels look rather plain on your white car. Good luck whichever you choose.

Ibis 2.0T is infamous around these parts
Definitely doesn't do that car justice. They look small and they look outdated. Much better choices out there. HRE's being my top choice.

These are my favorite wheels. If you don't want them, sell them to me.
