Default Options for rims?

Not able to find any info yet but the more rim; the less rubber the happier I am.

How big do you think you could go with rims on the A1? Maybe 18/19"?

I am partial to chrome, not enough chome on a car and it just looks odd and in some cases looks like you rattle canned your rims.

Anything in gunmetal will look HOT.

Depends on where you are, but chrome can degrade with exposure to salt and water, etc.

+1 on the gunmetal, though.

So if you live near the shore your chrome should be brushed or the environment will brush it for you. Good to know. I still like chrome so will probably take my chances and polish it up frequintly.
