I mean c'mon. I love my car, but the cars that are comparible to the VT have 10 times better wheels than us. I mean the actual NAV 18's that they offer (not the ones with the color insert), look better then these chinese star looking stocks. If you look at the focus SVT, MazdaSpeed, GTI's, etc..., they all have much better looking wheels that you can actually keep with a proper stance. I hope the 14's make a change because I've always been a fan of being stanced on nice stock's. i.e. IS300, S2000, S5, integra, SI....................

I just think they look a little cheesy, but like you said, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I just feel they should go all chrome or all silver. I think the contrast is what doesn't work well. I sure do love the Remix wheels though. Those wheels with a 10MM spacer will look just right!

I think they are better than the FRS/BRZ wheels, they look so out of place on the car IMO.

But stock wheels aren't something to worry about because you know you're going to want to switch them out

I actually like the stock FRS/BRZ wheels lol. And the stock VT wheels aren't too bad, but yeah, not really digging the contrast to much as well as others.

Get a set of Remix wheels and a 10mm spacer. Post a trade thread on veloster.org, I bet someone would be willing to trade.

I don't love the VT wheels either, but they have grown on me. I do want to replace them at some point but I'm not in as much of a hurry now.

My concern is that no matter what wheel I choose it will hurt its resale value. Wheels are a personal thing and almost always look dated after a few years. So I figure that I'll need to hang on to the original wheels and put them back on when it comes time to sell my VT.

The Remix and NAV 18" wheels that aren't color keyed - that already looks dated - are an option because at least they are a stock wheel.

I'm not a fan of the stock VT wheels at all, that's why I dipped mine until I get some aftermarket wheels. Much happier now ;)
