After I crashed the car, two of the R15 wheels were crushed. It was
time to get R17 wheels. I got used Toora T950 for real low price with
summer tires. I bought them as temporarily replacement of the R15, but
I got really used to them and l do like the looks, though I`m thinking
about painting them black. The wheels seem to be average weight (read: heavy) and got a lot of damage since the wheel is 9J (not sure, but seems so) but the tires are 215/40 and the tires just don`t fill the rim. I have already scratched the rim my self two times against a curb. Also the wheels are damaged from bumps and holes on the road and doo need some straightening. But whatever, I don`t enjoy fast driving (over 150kmh), I prefer aggressive driving in corners, so I don`t care about wheel play and the car doesn`t vibrate and handles well up to 150km/h, so I`m fine with that!.

Planning to get winter tires for these rims also.
