Rota's are decent, and i really like the look of the ATS's. The look of the sub-zero's kinda scares me though... 12 lbs and spokes that thin, i'm thinking it would be too easy to make a taco out of one of them. You also might want to look into the kosei k1. they're very strong, and around 12-13 lbs. Can be had for around 125-130 per corner if you find a decent dealer. Plus, they actually look good on an A2. I'm not sure I would like the look of the rota C8's (same design as the konig greenlight) on a square looking A2... but I might be wrong. I haven't seen anyone running them on an A2 yet. Part of that is just my opinion that most of the more japanese car oriented wheels look out of place on an A2, but I could be wrong. Props for going for lightweight 15" wheels instead of fat, heavy 16's or 17's. Your car will thank you. Oh, and when you go looking for tires- get the falken azenis!! I just put a set of the 195/60-14's on my 96 jetta... these things are only second to my toyo ra-1 race tires. TONS of grip. That, and they were $54 ea with free shipping from tires.com.
