The OZs are very close to factory spec but factory spec does let the wheels sit inward a bit too much for a lot of peoples tastes so they use spacers to fill out the fender wells a bit. I just needed 6mm all around.

They come in Silver and Gold too but I think Black looks great:

Are these 19" oz? How much is a set of 4 for a 2010 tt?

The 19"s have a concave look to the rear, the 20's do not...the 19's look way better in this regards. The GT2 above has 19's on it and is the pic that sold me on the wheel, just amazing looking.

Its a must to discuss you needs with Damon at the tire rack, I believe there are some offset choices that wont come up on the search for your car system on the web site. Damon could explain more, but from memory I recall there being more to it.

Gmoney, thank you for the information. I might call him for price and details. That pic looks amazing on a black car, which is what i have currently.

I went with black on my GT silver. If lowered I think this is a great look. At stock ride height, dont as me why, but I think the silver wheel looks better...cant really explain it.

I was thinking black too. But then silver does catch your eyes more!

How are you finding the RSS product's?

The RSS mods transformed the car, more so than the springs and sways. granted, they needed the springs and sways to work together as far as improving the suspension as a whole.

I cannot recommend the parts more strongly, they are a must. It has made the car feel more much planted in corners when you hit bumps mid corner and has really built up the confidence level driving the car during higher speed cornering. Not only that but you can get the car aligned 'right' with the parts and not eat up rear tire insides.
