I would if they are 20s, cuz it gives the car a 4x4 look.
well not really, with the 18s it still look like 4x4

I like the Monsoons too, I wanted them for my Mitsubishi. I would still get the Konig Imagines for a non-luxury car. Theres a guy in my area with Konig Imagines on a Black 2 door 2000 Accourd. Its just HOT!!!!

They are similiar b/c it's a knockoff of course, but...........

.............when you see some 19" AV3's in person there is NO! comparison and you can definately tell they are Volks. The quality is so noticable.
