"Regret"
This post is titled "regret".
After having CCW's on the C5, followed by ATS's and 6UL's on the Miata, these wheels are a real disappointment, but to be expected. Heavy and a bit ugly.

What about going back to the 15x9's with the 225/45 RS3's up front and 15x10's with 235/50's in the back? The 225/45's in back look retarded and leave me shifting gears constantly. Its like driving a truck.

Dual bolt pattern wheels irritate me. I bought the wheels/tires for long distance highway driving. I bought a 2013 Elantra Limited a few weeks later, so the car only gets driven around town. Why not have sticky tires around town? I got walked by a new 5.0 out of the hole and had to play catch up.
