i hope the 17s look better on slammed cars. roja boy-i want 17' rgrs because i hear they can handle massive dumpage =)
LMs are my absolute dream wheel but i would have to get 18's for those no doubt. im worried about rubbing/weight issues and even though i can afford them i dont wanna dish out $3500+ for them on an s2k. i would have bought those on my old ///m3 for sures though.

theres couple bbs wheels in that sebring wheel thread. WRS2K's sebring has rgrs in 17 and his car looks NICE i dunno why those 17's look much better on his car than nsxinsac's car? maybe cuz theres more dumpage?

those berlinas in this thread look like sex.

damn that silverstone look soo nice with those wheels. 18's look awesome with a drop. the suzuka one looks nice too but 18s honestly do look much better at least in pictures. im so sad =(
do 18's rub with a 255 tire size??

i cant decide between 18's because of weight, rubbing issues and price/tires...im so screwed, i hope i dont regret that i got 17s/18s after i buy them

If you are going to go with a 17" you can get a much lighter wheel with better fitment out of the standard Volks. If you want the BBS quality then go for the 18" LMs.

There is a big difference in handling between the 17" Volks and the 18" LMs but at the end of the day the LMs simply look amazing.

see...when you post stuff like that, i want to get full blown 18 inch LM's, im already in a dilemma lol

im so sick of volks, the only ones i wanted were se37k, bbs look just like those mesh style wheels, except bbs rules that style!
i think bbs is almost as light and strong as the volks, i like bbs' quality
german shieza quality even though theyre made in japan

My advice? Do it right the first time. Spend the money if you have to, you will be much happier.
