Default Wheels. What do you guys think?

Hi All,

I am due new tyers soon, and as the litte grey matter starts to work over time i thought i might be able to upgrade my rims to 18's with tyre package

I really like the look of the ones below i have got a blue hawkeye sti (and i love the blue and gold combo) what do you guys recon. Should i go with these rims and should i chance the budget tyres? they will problably only last six months but I get the rims too and can get some decent tyres after that I have to be carful money wise as the managing director will have her beedy eye on said transaction i can justify £460.00 as that is the price of four bridge stones.. If you know what i mean....

All thoughts welcome

Not sure on how long they will last but hopefully not very long as youll hate having them anyway. My car had budgets on it when I bought it and it was terrible.

Wheels look very good tho

I'd find out how much extra he will charge for premium tyres. If it's £100 a corner, you're into the territory of branded, good quality wheels and tyres combo.
