They're GT-C replicas, but the center of the wheel looks too bulky, the spokes are too short, i think it would look pretty tacky especially knowing that they're replicas.

Want to beeeeeeeeeeeeees..............

Purchasing rims should be an upgrade. With these
want to be Volks you'd be trading down. There is
a lot to consider when buying rims......how they are
made.....how much do they weigh......will they fit
after I get tires installed? Before you lay your $
down be aware of all these factors. Oh yea, do I
really like them?

....please do not give in to this. Save your money. It is better to spend more money and be happy then to buy something cheap, your G deserves better.

From the ebay ad:
DESCRIPTION: 19X7.5 8H 4/100-4/114.3 40MM OFFSET
Do you know what 7.5 wide would look like on the back of your G"? LAME!!
Go staggered.....
Besides they are 4x100 or 114.3....you need a 5X

1. Don't even THINK about
2. Would definately be a trade down from stock rims (yes - even stock 17s)
3. How could you do that to a G?
4. Don't even THINK about it.
