For some reason I really like the look of these wheels. I'm wondering if anybody knows exactly what they might be?

That is my 02 C4S. I have kept that tradition alive even to this day on my 03 TT.

19in Techart Formulas. Rears are 25 ET with 315 19's in the rear......

if your going to seriously drag race this car forget about running 19's. you need 18's for the street and 17's for the track. just saying

My last oz wheels bent really easy. My 20" axioms seem bulletproof. I was thinking 19's, I need to make sure they fit over my big *** brakes. :/

Probably worry about this after the motor is done. Just planning ahead.

unless your bigger than 350/350mm rotors most all the 18's will fit. if you have the 330mm rears then you can even run 17 or 16 in the back in a drag setup. looks funny but allows huge sidewalls

My front rotors are 380 mm.

Not sure why, but my car looks really really really hard. It never hooked hard until I put my new tires on which are the hankook Evo2. These were late years creepier than my old tires. It's really impressive. The car will not even barely spin the tires in first gear. But that was only with the GT 700 kit.

So I was planning on getting a set of 19's for a track wheel

69% weight over back of the car helps! With 4 digit power your going to have issues with wheel hop and hook. There are a few 18" rims that will clear best way is dedicated drag setup and a nice street setup
