I ran across these locally and if they would work, it's a deal I just couldn't pass by. Pictures and specs attached.

I don't see why not. You'll want to get 67.1-73 hubcentric rings.

Forgot to ask: what size are the Azenis on those wheels? The combo looks tits, in any case.

Yeah, you shouldn't have any problem unless you slam your car. Just pick up those hubcentric rings and lug nuts (doubt the OEM lugs will fit) and you're all good.

Those are great wheels. Fairly light and should be a great fit.

Show pics once they're installed!

Because I'm kinda poor at the moment, I put down a deposit on them. So they are mine for sure, but I won't be able to actually finish the deal until the 15th. So expect pictures on the 16th. I'll post them, I swear. But in the meantime here's more pictures the guy had of them. (Don't tell anyone, but $550 for the whole set)

Ok guys, as promised, here are pics of the new wheels mounted. These azenis are a night and day difference from the stockers.

Looks damn sexy!
They look a little darker on the car than on the pics by themselves.

How's does the car drive with your new wheels?

Well I've only driven it about 20 miles, but it drives much better. It actually made a bigger difference than what I was expecting, I'm sure more thanks to the tires than the wheels. It's hard to describe, but it is much more sensitive to any steering input you give it, to the point it felt twitchy to me at first until I got used to it. Much more connected. The Azenis are a good bit louder than the stockers.

LER42: I have a feeling the two of us are going to be going back and forth with each other. I was surprised I got the edge on you at the event before last, but you gave me a royal ass whoopin at the last one... sheesh. The more I think about it, I think I was too hard on the tires at the last one. They really didn't seem to like the heat. I'd say I was over drivin it for sure.
