Ive got 18s with 225/40s on them.
They are a little heavier but they are indentical diameter to standard (or very close) because of the lower profile.
Its only a touch slower by my pants dyno but the wider tyre and stiffer profile make it handle much better!
I've made my decision....
Thats all im going to say....just wait till the end of next week if all goes well and pics will be posted..
shhh...
Just wondering, say hypothetically i have bbs wheels on my car...should i be worried that they will get nicked?
Im being serious...are they that sought after?
Not to the degree that they'd get instantly nicked if someone sees a set on your car! Use a good set of lock nuts if you're feeling paranoid.
Yes they are. Especially with the $1000k per corner price tag they carry.Quote:

They are sought after & a good set of locking wheel bolt's/nut's is excellent insurance.Quote:

Usually the first thing to get knicked is the BBS Valve cap's. My brother's were knocked off I think from memory in the first week. Then replaced & knocked off again.
Got my Konig 18s... :D
Pics or ban ;)
