15x6.5 is the only ones that were listed on Buywheelstoday but im sure there are a few options. Chino, i know i saw a pic of them on your car a while ago and thats why i started looking at black rims.

I used to have 17's with a polished lip and I'm a lot happier with the Heliums. Nice thing is if you bang one up they're cheap to replace.

They aren't my dream wheels but they do the trick for a good price and haven't given me any troubles as far as wear and tear go... yet. Only time will tell.

i wouldn't feel comfortable running them with their track record.

also, I'm very much against supporting replica companies, so ignoring their quality I still wouldn't do it.

[fact]
the heliums are a perfect example of a lightweight cast wheel that isn't as strong as the forged wheel they copied. [/fact]
