I'm about to buy a set of wheels, and I was just wondering what everyone thought of these. I'm looking at buying some BBS RKs 17X8 with 235/40/17s all around OR some D Force LTW 5 wheels in silver 17X8.5 rear and 17X8 front with 245/40/17 rear and 235/40/17 front. My other option is to buy some BBS RXs advertised here on the forum. They are 17X8s as well. The car is a daily driver, and I am trying to maintain a look that is unmodified to slightly modified. Any suggestions/comments are appreciated. Thanks

I'd go with RX's for a clean OEM look. Or find some RS-GT's :)
Any of those are good light wheels, so get whichever suits your needs, tastes or budget.

BBS looks more stock
I would get the D Force and stick the money saved into rubber.
Also I would stick with one width size on all four corners.
but either way its your moolah, and all your wheel choices are good ones so you cant go wrong from there.
Im sure you will enjoy the new shoes.

+1 on the same size all the way around for a daily, so you can rotate.

thanks, im going to go unstaggered if/when i get the new wheels. The d forces are on backorder apparently so i think i might be getting a stage 2 setup first (3.5 hfm, injectors, etc.). I'm thinking of doing 17X8 all around with 235/40/17 tires. This should prevent rubbing, and even improve handling and ride some I think.
