I think the stock 17" wheels look quite classy.

quality wise, no, I know they are light, good quality rims.

Lookswise I find them to be plain, boring and cheap looking. Compared to the rims of other "luxury" cars, they are horribly plain looking for the car they are on. The entire VW/audi line has the same similar looking wheels. It would not be hard to guess that the same company makes all of those wheels. Flat and blocky, all of them. Compare the stock alloys on the VW golf. They are practically the same design as the 5-spoke premium wheels for the TT. Only polished and Dished, and obviously better quality.
