thanks touf... hot on a sy one too.

i esp. like the black diamond finish... funny when i had the rears put on the finish did not match so wheel enhancement had to bug bbs to get matching wheels in from japan. they replaced all four & now match perfect... seems the second stage paint was put on too heavy. fwiw: heard they are painted black @ first & then sprayed w/ a ghost of silver to achive that finish then clear coated...

btw: why doesn't tirerack have the beautiful 19's in stock (or @ least) on their site??? now those are dope for the right p-car, etc... they are just plain sic!!!

Does anyone know what the offsets of the 18 inch RS-GT's are (to fit a TT)?
What sizes, 18x8.5 and 18x10?

Thanks for the help

I PM'ed Damon for a price check. FWIW, just go to their site and what you see is what you get. Since these are modular wheels, I would think it is probable that they can set you up with the right offset.

No problem. U ll enjoy the new look.
If you have a chance, refinish them and they'll look like new.
One thing I always wanted to do is paint the center in black but never did.
I m sure they look really good that way

Here we go again...

There seems to be lots of interest in these wheels. Has anyone considered a GB for these??

I would lead the Euro side if it "came to pass" .....

There is a set for sale on the classifieds. No affiliation.
They even come with MPSC on them.

Touf,

Refinish the wheels?!? They are nearly perfect.

A couple of pics I just took (got home around 11:45pm last night.. and decided swapping wheels was more important than sleep).

The BBS RS-GT in Diamond Black has always been my favorite !

If I had not stumbled into a great deal on a set of used BBS race wheels, I would have gone with the BBS RS-GT in Diamond Black too. Congrats on a super looking wheel.

Ok.
Looks almost like my car.
You need to work on that height..........
The wheels will look really good once your car is at RS height or M030 height.
See my Avatar. I have PSS9's set to RS height.
