18" black Karthoums
I had the same thing happen to me - was originally going to get the cheap set then upgrade to aftermarket Hartmans or ? But the Karthoums were installed either at the factory or at port and couldn't be changed. In fact the Saleperson got a bit cocky and said - "well if you don't like them - I've got 3 others already lusting after the car - so we can just order you what you want". Wasn't sure I was going to like them - but in person on the car (Black/Black) the look great and will look even better when I get the coilovers (hurry Bilstein, hurry). I've posted a few pictures on one of the earlier pages.tdi_tra said:Would like to know everyone's opinion on the 18" Black Karthoum wheels. I'm taking delivery on my 2010 JSW in January. Dealer just notified me that my initial wheel selection was not available on the wagons. So instead of the dealership having me select another wheel, they notified me that the Black Karthoums will be on my vehicle, which are also the most expensive ones, go figure.
Never really been a fan of the blacked out wheel look. Wondering how they look in person. Also wondering the success rate of people swapping wheels out at the dealership lot. Thoughts on the matter?
