Back in the prosolo days, we did not have the most prepped cars, but always made sure we had fresh A7s. That went a long ways, and also put you in a position to win some back. 335's on 18x13's work even better on the ass end of a turbo beetle.

Definitely, but wheels are expensive and I had to get what was available that would fit under my flares.
