New wheels

I`m planning to switch my BBS with new rims. Would anyone have any suggestions for a really nice set? particularly 18 inch deep-dish. Something gold perhaps with a chrome trim circumference. Or hyper silver.
A website also be of help.
All suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

Would those BBS's happen to STi gold stockers? Because if so, I'd be interested in buying them from you if they're in good condition and the price is right

As for rim suggestions, you can't ever go wrong with Volk Wheels! Yes! http://www.mackinindustries.com/md/rays/volk.html

The rims are silver (5 x 114). Thank you for the info and I`ll definitely check the Volks.

Oh, that's too bad. I wanted a set of gold 5x100s.
But yes, Volks are some of the best wheels out on the market! Good luck!

You can't really run deep dish on our cars because of the high offset. The only way you can do a deep dish look is to go wide body kit. Then you have more fender room.

Like Choku said, Volks are super nice. I have them and I love every single minute of it. Next in my opinion are Prodrives and then Advan.

Yes, I did think about a widebody, but for now I`d rather save some money. I am looking into these though --> Volk Racing GT U Wheel 17x8 in either gold or gunmetal.

The Volks are gorgeous wheels... and so are the Work wheels. If you're worried about wait time, the Volk might carry a decent sized wait and the Works would be somewhat easy to obtain for the most part. Hit me up if you want any prices
