The BBS look old and outdated on the GT3
Actually, they make the car look slower IMHO

Make sure the MPSCs are available in the sizes you want - long backorder on the 18" 315's

tire rack has an amazing deal on OZ Superleggera wheels mounted with 18 inch 235/315 Michelin Cups and pressure sensors. Very nice price.

Don't forget the Volk TE-37's that are now in P-car fitments. Tire Rack has them at about $600-700/corner and they only weigh 20#

As much as I like Volks, I don't think they make a 12 inch wide wheel.
