    Your Opinion Wanted (PICS)

    That's right. I would like YOUR opinion.

    This is what was. A very heavy and non-functional 18" Motegi wheel. These things took two hands to carry and had a very rough ride.



    This is what is. I was going for the old-school import look. They are 15" BBS wheels. They're light, and the larger tire offers a better ride. They're wide also, as they are premium wheels. (I realize the rear end is high...but that's the beauty of Ground Controls)

    18
    Too small. The EURO look is what's in!

    Bamish! You noticed. We actually had to grind about 1-2mm of the caliper-arm-stabilizer-arm to get these to fit. No harm done. They barely fit inside the fender walls, but that's being remedied.

          For 15s they don't look all that small. Keep the BBS rims and ditch the motegis. Lookin great!

              15s don't look bad at all, hell tons of people want to rock 5gen ex wheels right?!

              i'm just not too fond of the gold color, imo a uniform silver would look better.

                      To me, the Motegi wheels look too ricey, NOT my kind of look. I definately like the BBS wheels better.....well, except for the gold color, that exact same wheel in silver would be perfect!

                        If I get sick of the gold, I can bead blast them, and have some friends powdercoat them. What if they matched the car?

                          eh, its up to you......personally, I think that car, with those BBS wheels only in silver would look awesome.

                              It would...leave the lip if you do . Only bad part about having that lip is they make the wheels look smaller.
