Default GT4 on BBS E88s or Rotiform LSRs

I am toying with the idea of getting some different street wheels for the GT4. Currently I run forged 19in for the track and OEM for the street.

I always wanted wanted E88s but they don't make them in 20s.

Does anyone know the weight of 20in forged Rotiforms? It is alot over the OEM 20s, enough to notice?

Does anyone know the weight of E88s in 19s?

I have a white GT4 so probably going to go polished lips and brushed/matte gold face. If you got pics of this combo feel free to post them.

I know you are not asking about other options but I went with a much lighter wheel in the HRE 101 LW ( you could also call out the BBS Fi-R as similar weight reduction) honestly its the best performance add I have made. Major difference in responsiveness and overall handling/performance. I'm sold on taking out rotational weight as the best performance enhancement out there.

Actually BBS does not have the E89 which is the 20" version of the E88....20 x 9.0, 20 x 10, 20 x 11

We have a customers set for sale and can do the face in any custom finish you may want....they are Damon Jones' set from Singer

I am running caster pucks and camber plates up front and rear camber arms. Car handles very neutral and I think the wheels look great. I don't have weights on the wheels.

Car is stunning mate. It is a beautiful setup, and polished/polished looks awesome on white as well. Thanks for the pic.

100% agree. I run a 19in lightweight wheel for track duties but looking for something different for the street. Been running the OEM 20s on the street, so feel like a change.

You can't go wrong with either wheel brand. Since the Rotiform's are custom built per order you have the added benefit of doing any width, any offset, any diameter, and any finish straight from factory. One of my favorite LSR setups seen below:

I would be interested to see the weight of the E88s.
