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 Smiley

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

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.

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

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.
