AFS makes 17x8 and 17x9 mixed sets, so you dont have to worry about rubbing, and they come in silver, white, chrome, and polished aluminum....

Guys!!!!

Guys,

I am not upgrading to 17X8 or 17X9... i am sticking with 16X8-so I will not have to drop a load of cash on new tires, being I have new michelins on there now.
the name of the Cobra R's are from Detroit something on Jegs... Has anyone ever heard of them???

Thanks-Anthony

I have Topline 17x9 Cobra R's all around, no scrubbing and real high OEM quality, but they are silver.
