BBS wheels woot woot!
I just picked up a set today. They're not tire rubbing 18's, just some 15" rims to kick it old school style. Now for some tires, probably some Falkens.

I'm thinking of running 205s. If the Falkens fall through I'm willing to give the Fuzion HRI (by Bridgestone) tires a try. They're probably available in 16s but you have to remember that these were made in an era where 17s are like 24s nowadays.

amen.. i'm in love with gold wheels right now.
i think 15" is way too small on our cars, the body is just too big for them. i think 16" is the smallest i would go, but when it comes to wheels, everyone has their own taste, and that's what makes personalizing your car so much fun, right?

Should I run 205/65/r15 or 205/60/r15. I know the 65 sidewall will be slightly taller than the OEM 195 tire and I'm OK with that. I just want to be certain a 60 sidewall on a 205 won't have a lower profile than that of a 195.
