Ive been thinking about buying these wheels for the last 2 wks. Im still stuck on performance vs. appearance. With that out of your mind, how do you think they look? (I cant find any info on the weight tho)

If I had the GT black molding, they would look awesome. But I have the noblack molding GLS. The pic of the car, in my first post, is my car with the wheels photoshopped on.

If ya get some dark tints and maybe nightshade your taillights, those wheels would look great.

I think the wheels look hot, but for some reason I just don't like how it goes with that color Elantra.

get them, you won't even think twice about getting rims. Think of it like a right of passage to switch from steelies. and tint would def. set them off!

Tint is a must if you get the black rims. Go at least 20%. ADR makes good wheels too. Most of there offsets are only 40 though, so be careful if you plan to run 215s. Safe with 205s.

Keep the opinions coming. LOL Im still having a hard time visualizing these. I searched and couldnt find any car with the same color/wheel combo. Im also trying to find weight info. (17" ADR Comp 7s) I would like something AT LEAST lighter than stock steelies and tires. From what Ive read, 17" tires are lighter than 15" tires.

I have a silver 06 GLS just like yours with 20% tint. I tried a few different black and polished lips at the local Les Schwab tire dealer here. I really liked the look, but the prices all sucked. I never even tried that wheel cause they wanted like $200 each for it. I ended up last week buying a whole set with tires from wheelmax for $800. Post is here http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15468 they are not black, but Hyperblack. If they had the wheel I got in just black I would have gotten it.
If you can get those for a good price. Jump on it.
