It seems odd to me that XXR and BBS are in the same comparison list.  Of those 3, I pick (B).

^^ I believe those may be the "replicas" with BBS caps? Otherwise, their price range wouldn't even compare to the other two wheels listed :)

Moved to appropriate forum.

Upon closer inspection, you are correct.. Those are reps..  In that case, I change my vote to (A).

if i get the tl-s i can just swap the tires from my oem rims to those but if i get the 18's i still have 4 spare tires from my previous car decision decisions lol

I'd get the TL-S wheels. I'm not a fan of reps.

^ Basically.

I'm rocking my TL-S right now, prob put some spacers on until I get legit wheels. Everybody and their mother has those cheap XXR wheels and I would only rock BBS reps if it was a temp. setup.

+1

I would never run reps, even for a temp setup.  OEM > Replica.

/thread

Im liking optiin 1 and 2, i dont care if theyre reps im not trying to enter car shows or nothing

So if i decide to get the second rims they run 18x8 35 front 18x9 40 rear my tires are 18x225x40 will they fit ok?

Those tires would fit fine. Personally, I'd go with the square setup to be able to rotate tires.

If I would run them, it would be to change my look(TL-S) while I save up for $3000+ wheels.
I probably won't do that though, I'll just throw on spacers.

In my opinion, it's a waste of money to buy reps just to change up the look that you plan to change again when you buy the new wheels.  The money you spend on reps just delays the time before you can get those new wheels.

Note: I'm not planning to extend this as a replica vs authentic battle, so this will be my last post in this thread. 

TL-S. are these going to be your summertime wheels?

I did say I will probably not do that bc you're right. That $1000 I spend on reps I can use for the real wheels :) I'm saying that would be the ONLY reason I do that, if I ever did. Doesn't mean I'm going to do it.

if i end up getting the tl-s then ill run them year round, tempted on the bbs rep though

Can't go wrong with mesh rims

Yea thats why i think im gonna go with the bbs rep
