I had the '91 coupe rims before on my TII but I still prefer the BBS rims. IMHO, they look really good and are super light.

The BBS wheels are super light, and look really awesome. Looking through the BBS wheels and to the brakes just looks awesome.

**** this thread is old. I have since purchased a set of perfect BBS wheels and have nothing but good things to say about them. Very nice. I acctually looked at purchasing a set of 5star 91' wheels for track days. who knows.

BBS all the way!
