The STI bbs thread

After 3 months of searching, I finally found one in stock paint (Since everyone seems to paint these ******* wheels in black) for a reasonable price without bends and major curbage... quite a rare wheel to find here in Canada. I ran into a set 2 months back but it was bent and I had to return it to the seller...

I may possibly be the only one on the forum with STI BBS's on a 5th gen when I get these on for winter.

I would like a ride in your car please :) Want to feel the suspension setup you have going, may go a very similar direction...

 

Nice wheels, BTW :)

I'm starting my search for some 17's for the winter. I might start looking into the availability of these wheels (in silver) here in New England.

Sold my '04 STi with 17x8 Rota g-forces, and kept my BBS wheels for my winter setup :).. Pretty excited to try them out, because my 18x8.5 Rota g-forces (summer setup now) are HEAVY..

 

Have to admit tho, I sprayed my BBS wheels black metallic last fall :redface:. In my defense the OEM finish was peeling badly and I'm going to get them properly painted after this winter.

I painted mine because the finish was shot. Good find though. Those look clean. These look best on legacys IMO.

That and I couldn't possibly recommend running hub adapters. In addition to the 5x114.3 wheels, a quality hub adapter set will cost more when all is said and done. This is why people don't do it.

 

Says the guys who already owns a sick set of goldies ;)
