So yeah. I just bought a set of 16x7 et24 / 16x8 et24 BBS RS’s to throw on the MR2. Here are the ones I bought.
To start off: I already bought the wheels. I know that some of you don’t like these wheels, think the $200 knockoffs are a better buy, don’t think expensive wheels are smart, etc. etc. That’s perfectly fine, everyone is entitled to their opinion and I’ll be glad to talk about them in person or in another thread. This thread I’d love to keep just to suggesting color schemes. Thanks.
The lips are being filled (sliiiight curbing) and polished as we speak, I plan on buying new BBS centercaps and repainting the centers of the wheels sliver.
So here’s the parts of the wheels that are 100% (not up for discussion, being done as we speak/in the near future):
-Fully polished lips
-Silver centers (mesh part of wheel that the lips are bolted to)
-Silver OUTSIDE part of centercaps (the part that looks like it’s part of the wheel
The “variables”:
-Color of bolts
OPTIONS:
Gold
Chrome
-Color of big “cover” in the center of the wheels (with BBS sticker on them)
OPTIONS:
Gold (only if gold bolts)
Chrome (to match lips)
Silver (to match “mesh” of wheel)
-Color of BBS sticker itself
OPTIONS:
Black with gold lettering (only if gold bolts and cover)
Black with silver lettering
“Chrome” with silver lettering
So there’s two variables here. The color of the bolts and the color of the “BBS” sticker
Pics of a lot of different combo’s (some are not BBS RS’s but you get the point):
I like how from far away you can’t really tell, it’s more of a subtle detail:
but not with the polished center:
with a lighter color silver center:
I know they’re very minute details, but I spent a good chunk of change on these and the bolts and centers have to be redone anyways so might as well make the most of it.
