I have the same size wheels you have. I have 275/40/17 for the front and 315/35/17 Goodyear F1's

Hey TMG I love your BBS RK wheels. I would have gotten those if they came larger than just 18x8.5 for the front and 18x10 in the rear. I really wanted to get as wide a wheel as I could. so I got a half inch wider front and rear. But it probably doesnt matter that much. When I get some money to waste I will get some BBS RS-GT's Looks hot though, its nice to see when someone strays from the normal thing. I would have but I got mine for so cheap.

Thats my dads car hehe, are the RS-GT's the 3 peice wheels? I think he wants those also. I think im getting the 18x9 and 18x10 FR500's for my 05. I wish i had enough money for some BBS's.

The RS-GT is a 2 peice. There a light weight too, usually all BBS wheels are light weight anyways. But those are expensive as hell. atleast $900 a wheel. The RK's are like $400 a wheel which is better.

I like the RK style but I hate the FR500. I know they are the same style. But the FR500 spokes dont flow into the mounting surface for the wheel it looks too cheap. They need to mold the mounting surface into the spokes. Like the Ford GT's wheels. Those are the same style but made by BBS.
