I decided to test fit some wheels Ive had sitting in my garage for a lil while. I just fit the front wheel, yea, im lazy.

First thing I noticed - it seems my tires have been rubbing!!


First up:

17x8 BBS RK-II +42
235-40-17

 

Not a bad design, look a little small because they are 17's.... what's next....

 

Exactly, i love the design, too small and definately will NOT clear a BBK.

Next (and last for now, im not a baller)

18x8 Infinity G35 wheels, not sure on offset
235-40-18

 

The G35 wheels look the better of the two. I'm a big fan of BBS's, but those are small and kind of a high offset. Probably why they were rubbing with a tall tire.

 

Right size, but don't look as good. I'd go smaller and nicer over bigger and uglier.

 

I got both sets pretty cheap, so ill rock em for a little while. May leave the BBS wheels on, perhaps with a small spacer, while i run on the stock brakes. Once I put the bigger brakes on, they wont fit anymore and the G35s will go on.

I want to get a badass set of wheels, but im building 2 other cars right now so im gonna have to go with what i have available already.

Appreciate the opinions. All my friends like the G35s. Im kinda torn between the two.

 

The G35 wheels look better

 

I'm sure those BBS's are pretty light though.

 

I like the BBS because they're different. Although with a fresh coat of paint, something silver or lighter, the Gs will look perfect.
