The hunt for a second set of SE BBS wheels has ended. I've been doing some research and believe that I'm going to get a set of 18X8 wheels in hyper black. Not quite as shiney as my black diamond SE wheels but still pretty. The only thing I dont like is the lack of a center cap.

Here is the wheel I am looking at:

I thought rota's only went on Honda/Acura's lol. Nice looking wheels and yes you can get centercaps for them. Contact rota or a rota dealer.

Those look nice on the EVO.

If you look at the front fender of that silver EVO. It looks like it is a different shade than the doors. I've noticed the same thing on mine and Machayiiaahh's EVO too. Maybe it's something with the paint on the aluminum being different.

I'm not a big fan of two tone wheels. I hate the silver and red lip craze that seems to be the newest "JDM must have".

I was going to drop $1400 on another set of BBS but the Rotas are about the same with some RT615s and they are 18s.

18 inchers have a lot of F and F street cred. Can't beat that. :?

F and F rules for street cred.

18" wheels - you are cool and master of the universe.
17" wheels - get a life.

The polished lip has been in style for years now, where have you been?
