Kinja hates me and won’t let me upload or link pictures, so here’s a URL, lol:

They’re winging their way to me now and I should have them tomorrow. New wheel bolts and PFS rings will be along by (hopefully) the weekend so I can get everything mounted up.

BBS CHR 19x8.5 in satin titanium. Much excite.

I was between brilliant silver and satin titanium - went with the latter after seeing some titanium wheels on a friend’s mythos S5.

I can’t wait to see them on the car. I’m looking at a set of HRE FF01's in bright silver for when my stock tires are spent.

I’m extremely picky and opinionated about wheels, can usually find something wrong, but I you absolutely nailed it. Nice!

So true - can’t tell if it’s something in my work browser that disables me from linking or attaching images or what. I’ll need to try and log on from home sometime, or maybe via my phone.

Thanks! I’m the same way - I’ve wanted a set of CHR for a very long time.

I very nearly bought a set of FF01's - someone was selling a 1 month old set on Audizine for a great price. If they were pretty much any color other than black I’d have bought those.

thats’ just kinja being kinja.

from my iphone and Ipad i have to insert images with the image button then paste link of the image. only way for it to work(sometimes)

on my pc, i can paste the link, and normally when i post my image shows up 2,3, 4 or even 5 times.

when i try the pic button and insert the link my image will post once, or never.

the only thing constant with kinja is it’s inconstancy.

I bought black wheels for my winter set, I don’t like em haha. They look great in person, if they’re clean, and it’s a bright day...

In order to get those particular wheels in silver I had to go more extreme on the offset. I did all kinds of research and calculations on wheel offset and finally came to the conclusion that my car would self destruct if I strayed too far from stock with the offset lol.

Uh oh - I hope that’s not the case! The ones I bought are a much more aggressive offset over stock (+32 vs stock +46). From my measurements and research they should be essentially flush, but I may have a tiny bit of poke up front.

I think mine are +40, I definitely like the look better than stock and they have been fine. I just googled myself into unreasonable fear the way you can when you look up why your finger hurts and the internet tells you you have aids.

The only real mistake I made was choosing to save $200 bucks on cheaper snow tires...they’re fine in the snow, but abysmal in the rain.

From what I’ve found +32 is the max offset for a 8.5" wide wheel on the front of these cars. We’ll see if I was right, hah. I’d have preferred something a bit less aggressive like a +35 or +38, but really, that’s only 3 and 6mm difference, which isn’t much.
