ok, ive narrowed down to two choices, and im really having a hard time deciding
winter tires are 245’s
these are primarily winter wheels, but id like to mount track tires to them when my budget allows, the widest R comp i can get in 19" is 265, but thats 1400 for the set for pilot cups so who knows when that will happen
so here are the choices
staggered matte black CSL wheels in with 19X9.5 rears and 9 fronts
BBS LM replicas in 19x8.5 all around…
these are teh reps not real LM’s
BB5’s are siq. that’s what i’d do. though i don’t know about that as a winter wheel. i’d just throw some steelies on it.
I would switch to stock wheels and brakes in the winter, it probably will cost the same, and will be a much better setup.

i dont have either… i tried doing that last winter but people want ~4-500 bux for stock m3 brakes, and the wheels would cost me another 400-600
and i already have the 19" winter tires that i got a sick deal on (new blizzaks for 125 ea shipped)
so you bought tires before you got rims?
$500 Winter beater???

f that, i do 90% of this crap on my own, rims are the only thing that i am always wishy washy on…
and its not just aestetic either, i dont know if loosing the width will make much of a differance
i love the look of the CSL wheels.
