Pulled the 18"s off and stepped down to 17"s just to see how these would look on the Elantra. Had them sitting around, figured why not. They actually don't look half bad, just need to get some bolts to put the center caps on.

17" American Racing Torque Thrust 5 spoke polished aluminum. Typically people put them on classics or hot rods, figured I'd mix it up and stick them on a modern Korean built car ?

Well after driving around with them installed for 2 weeks, I pulled them off and reinstalled my 18's... The offset on these American Racing 17's was just too wide and made them stick out too far to the sides, which was making them rub a lot when turning while the car was actually in motion, and the rears would rub when just hitting bumps or dips in the road.


So it's back to the 18's, which still don't look bad on it :)
