Teaser Pic of New Wheels.

Well I have joined the 14" Wheel Club. I came across a set of BBS RA's

I just refinished them on Friday night. And the weather has/is shitty here. It has been raining all weekend, and now they are calling for snow tonight. I will get better pictures once the weather breaks.

Enjoy!

The tires they came with are 185/60/14. I thought they were going to be too tall, and rub but they dont.

The car is as low as it can go, until I get shorter sway bar end links.

The picture is pretty crappy because it was taken with a cell phone.

Whats the offset? 14's are harder to rub them any other size wheels.
My rears rub a little, and mine are 26mm offset.

Yea, you wont rub. On my first 14's they were 14x7 +35mm on 205/60's.
Didnt rub at all. Then again I was on springs.

Hmmm, I've never been a fan of small wheels, but you and Ray have really changed that thought. Hmmmm. I like them actually.

BBS is always a great choice....I can't tell if it's the pic but they look white. I remember like 7-8 years ago white was the hottest color out for rims but it got to the point where everyone had them...especially on the 99'-00' electron blue si's. I just can't help but associate them with rice now.

But hey BBS is quality so cheers!

Coming from someone who has a picture of a stock Civic with painted stock wheels.

Maybe you should check some of my previous picture posts to check out other wheels that I have had on the car.

So I wouldnt be so quick to judge....
