keep your stock wheels..
once you get coils you'll be golden.. if anything invest in a tire with a smaller sidewall

thanks guys...i really appreciate the feedback! i really hate them...but right now it the only thing i have besides stock w/blizzaks...they are really strong Tezzen rims...they are actually made by Lexani...and my budget right now is pretty low because Loccusst helped persuade me into a nice set of interior alpine type x speakers....so maybe i will just find a cheap set of tires for the stock 16's with a lower profile....

Those chrome wheels have tires, yes? Instead of spending ~$400 on tires why not find the same size wheels as them and use the existing tires? Edge Racing (www.edgeracing.com) has nice wheels for under $100/piece.

Why not sell both sets of those wheels and tires, and get an appropriate setup from the Vortex classifieds...

i think u should sell them and buy new ones, cause with the money u make selling them ull still be able to get nice rims.
btw i saw a silver modded audi on my way home today with chromed spoked rims(kinda like the mkiv r32 wheels) and looks pretty decent actually

dont like the wheels either but such a clean '97!
what about picking up some cheap steelies for the car and then selling those wheels? that could get you by for awhile until you could get some new wheels that you liked.

the car is in my drive right now ....been here so long now i think its mine. but i do have to say it does not have those wheels on it . it has stockers.:D
Loccusst

And then use the steelies for winter rims.......I think DSV is onto something.

Don't you have the stocker 16" sport wheels though like I do? You can just use those for winter still..
