Custom 17"

Got a nice offer for 17" Rotas. Wondering if anyone is riding on custom 17" wheels and could share pics of them. Want to see if they fill out nicely.

They are black Rota Grids BTW (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-Ro...Q5fAccessories)

Thanks in advance.

What's custom about them?

Aftermarket 17s extremely rare around here. Guys that care about weight usually go with 18s at least.

And Rota FTL.

Yeah, everything is understood about asking this question. I'm cheap and some guy offered them to me for 450 barely used.

Wanted to see if it was gonna look weird (as I can't find any pics online of a G with aftermarket 17s..lol). I will stay with my stock wheels if it is not worth it.

Speaking of XXR - how do you guys feel about them? Good wheels or no. Was considering trading my OEM Rays for a set of 20" XXR 006 wheels.

Admitting you're cheap, stay with the OE wheels....
