The USB F, is running the Gunmetal wheels, the only car with the BLC is the 370Z. However both the white and the USB are great looking cars.

yup, even without the chrome, the blue line helps reinforce/accent the blue on the USB

Great choice Gary! I would have gone with the BLC, but both look great - can't wait to see them on your F.

I still have time, I'm going in tomorrow to take a look at both next to the car. Either way thanks for your input.

Must be a pre-requisite for the wheels.

Anyway went in to check out the BLC, and decided to stay with the Gunmetal. I think they will look great with MM, and they will be installed April 15th.

This BBS classic wheel design goes well with most cars as they are conservative.

They are subtle and let the cars design take front stage as they don't call attention to themselves.

It is fine if you like conservative.

If you like agressive and standout then this design does not do that.

Take a look at this thread, I barrowed the idea from Supraman16, and Isfast, all the specs are here.

I cry every time I get a refund. That's money I SHOULD have had all year but Uncle Sam got the interest instead...

For a number of reasons over the last two years I could have paid more than half the cost of a new IS-F with my refunds...not this year!
