Default pics please! BBS wheel

I'm about to pull the trigger on some BBS wheels since i found out the fitment is good.
I'd like to see BBS wheels in 17 INCH, im wondering if they'll look too small

the perfect pic would be a yellow s2000 with bbs rgr's in 17 inch.

i really want to see the gold rgr's, ive never seen them before

work vsxx in gold is nice too.

Thanks

sadly I think mesh wheels in anything under 18 look horrible. I think it has a lot to do with having a lip and the way the spokes extend from the hub to the lip, there is not enough space for them to expand and look right. 18's in mesh look fabulous though!

thats what im worried about, that ill need to run 18's to make it look right. or run 17s and slam my car even more than it is(i already scrape everywhere).

oh shit who's car is taht??? looks pretty good. cant tell if therye gold spokes but looks clean. seems like if you're running on 17's, you would need some more slammage.

Who would think 1 inch would make such a positive difference?

And yes, that's what she said! .

LOL luder.

damn that black one looks dope! why do freaking 18's look so much better. goddamn it. i really wanna keep it in 17 inch so its lighter and i can transfer my brand new tires on it also. any rubbing issues with 18's? and how much more are tehy?

i appreciate the quick responses guys. id love to see more in 17 inch on a lowered car.

That yellow one is lowered on Ohlins coilovers. If you dump a car on 17s it looks good, but you need to make sure that the offsets permit dumpage.
