I quite like the JDMs you have on now. If you want to go 17, then I suggest the 07 OEMs. If you must go aftermarket, the BBS LMs are the best of the lot you picked, but they are heavy...

Can I ask the sizes on yours they look great! I would have to get them in bronze though
Hi mine are 7.5/8.5 x 17 et40. I found importing them no problem and only took 2 weeks from winning them on Yahoo Auctions. Funny enough mine were Bronze but wanted to go for a brighter colour so had them refurbed. Here they are when they arrived


I could help you if you want to get a set?

All the alternatives are horrible bar the OEM 17s which are ok.
Your having a larf If I had the Gonads to go for big rear arches I would go for Volks Racing TE37 in the blink of an eye.

Lol, I thought that! Still, might be worth an offer of you want them!

My problem is I dont want to buy any wheels that have been "re-furbed" as I just dont trust the original condition, and I really dont like dark wheels.

I did miss out on a set of gold 18 bbs's for £700 2 weeks ago so I really would not expect to pay much more than that for a set of used wheels.

Mugen MF10s are the best wheels for the S2000
