Going crazy trying to decide on 18" wheels for myS .....please help....so far I've considered the volk GTN gunmeatal and the SSR GT3...I think the SSRs might be to heavy (24lbs)...I also like the BBS RGR but I really want something with a chrome lip....I have a silverstone S and want a bright rim, trying to avoid greys and gunmetals...I don't want anything so heavy that I will notice a change in performance......any pics and advice would be greatly appreciated.....

I know how you feel. I've been looking and trying to decide since January. Look in to the Work S2R's. They come in silver with a polished lip, or "Burning Black" with a polish lip. The S2R's have one of the best offsets for our cars (+63, rear). The search engine will pull up some nice pics.

I just got my BBS RGR's in yesterday. I chose them because of their weight, pronounced rear lip, forged construction and cost compared to my other choice, Work S2R.

I had the same concern too when it came to the greys/gunmetal finish. After seeing/holding them, looking at them at different angles, The concerns went away. I'm happy with the purchase.

Now I've got to figure out what tires to go with. 18 inch tires are fricken expensive! Good Luck.
