Default Oh My Goodness Gracious These Stock...

BBS rims that i just had put back on my 007 OBP.are simply devine!
Ive been moaning about the fact that im going to have to go back to silver from black colored blacks racing rims and the such,but after 10 mins on these pieces of treasure i could give a rats a$$ what color they were/are.

BTW im on the last legs of my stock rubber,and OMG it didnt matter that im on ragged rubber as i feel the improvement in both aspects i.e. grip & responsiveness.


Also, to conclude,least of importance but just a notice,im getting more looks cuz of the silvers i think ,unless its all placebo effect.

I still do love black on black ,only now i dont care when it happens so much, as long as im on BBS

Well, it was a bit difficult to read.

ANyways, I think those were heavy cast rims. Forged rims are nearly always lighter and stronger. Save up and get a set of Volks and you'll happily relegate the BBSes to winter duty.
