^+1 to that. Would you buy knockoff Gucci or LV bags?

I know not everyone can afford real rims, but I don't support companies who copies other's design. Stick with the BBS. They look hot.

not everyone can afford 600 per wheel.

its unrealistic especially when they are used on a daily driver.

Rota's are the way to go

Why is it that every time ppl ask for suggestions about rotas, a few anti-rota naysayers need to put in their 2 cents?

This is his car, his money, he put up choices, if you like none of them, then why not save your 30 seconds and not post?

I'm pretty partial to tarmac 2's. I'd go gold just because I love how well the black cars look with gold wheels

you gotta like subaru's decision to use gold flakes on the java black pearl...

on a correct angle during the day, the flakes just stand out so much.
