If I sounded like I was against 15" wheels, allow me to clarify.
The German Look is mostly known in the US as having large diameter wheels, therefore the small diameter wheels would fail to put it into the GL category.
Personally, I believe that these cars are greater than the sum of their parts. So, excuse me if I sounded like a Cal-looker for a moment
Big wheels or small, you just can't argue with performance!
