BBS wheels: Should I?

AddiSTi · 03-07-2008, 12:55 PM

Hey guys

It´s about a month until I get my 2008 STI (and Evo X for that matter) and I´m thinking about doing something with the STI BBS wheels...

What do you guys think?

Dark grey

Black

Black with Lightning red ring

Dark grey with Lightning red ring:

And regarding the black... Flat black or shiny black?

EDIT:

More...

Black with silver ring

Dark grey with silver ring

White

White with Lightning red ring

I like the time attack look, with the red ring... but I feel like it´s been raped already.

Anthracite with red ring....so the wheel shows up a bit more...just looks to good to hide with black. But if you do go black, shiny.

So is that a typo or you gonna get an STI AND an Evo, or should that be OR?

^ +1 very nice Time Attack look. I personally am going for CE28N Time attacks or te37 time attacks. It would look awesome. Don't do flat, like he said he it hide the rim, I think Gloss will still let you see the rim.

Not a typo no. I also own an Evo X (Wicked Wide) that is currently in the US, ready to be shipped to me.

No time attack..., it is so overdone IMO. Just go with the dark grey wheels, that is pure money!

Yes I´m a bit afraid that the time attack thing is done already. I´m personally leaning towards dark grey.

Yeah, that looked the best, light enough to see the spokes

(dark enough so brake dust wouldnt show

) the red rim ruined it IMO

yeah that. I'd vote for dark grey of those choices, but really some kind of light bronze would look great on the red imho.

Get the right brake pads and never ever wash the rims again. They will be the color of your dreams soon enough.

Go with gold.

I think the light grey looks great!

Black with the red ring looks really good!
