I love the pattern on the CH-R, but even they only make that in 19 inch. I love these but they're for the track only. Any forged one-piece aluminum wheels that are very similar to this? Even BBS doesn't have one that's identical but made for street use. I wish the RS-GT came in a one piece. The RG-R just doesn't have the same look to it.

I am having the same dilema right now trying to maximize my cars performance without sacrificing looks. Did you look at the Forgestar F14's? Not forged but a lot of people are running them and I have not heard of any problems.

That's why I tried them, 2 track sessions already, no problem. I love the look of mesh but meshed out.....to many around, I love a lot of 19" style's but did not want to sacrifice performance, after all it's one of the reason's I bought the car to begin with

I am thinking of BBS FI for the summer. Maybe micro polished. Just cant seem to justify the cost...
Have my winter tires on black BBS CH-R:s now and I like them a lot.

Crap I said "I love these" and forgot to post the pic of what I was talking about. Not for street use though.
