I like the look of the 16's a little better. I've got the 15 BBS' on my vert and I think they look great, super lightweight too something like 11 lbs a piece. Biggest I would wanna go to would be a 16, preferrably a TurboII 16 and only in the back.

Great lookin' rides though guys

I dunno, I think 16x9.5 with a 4" lip on the rears on a dumped FC would looks pretty decent.
I'd rather put them to use instead of letting the sit in my closet

mines 500 a wheel lol

But regrading those wheels, its all in where you look for them, nothing wrong with 2nd hand wheels

http://zilvia.net/f/wheels-tires/311...new-tires.html

these are clean as hell too for cheaper and still a legit brand wheel

i think bbs rs's are the best looking wheels for the FC, matches it perfectly, especially 17's


i have rs copies by american racing in 16's, does that count?

Hey, what are you offsets, man?!

I know 17's looks better, but I have 16's and don't want to spend more for 17's.

RS' look better than I thought on FC's, cheers guys!
