bring the works to dgrr and I will take them off your hands

Track the BBS & street the Works, I personally think BBS have a Track feel to them more so than the Works.

Interesting - how would I get the car back to CT? I can't even fit my carryon bag in the 7 :rofl:

It's a very real possibility at this point :smilielol5:

Odd, while I agree with this statement, I originally bought the Works with a set of Toyo RA-1's on them and planned on using them solely for track. Now I'm undecided. Popular vote will have it though.

Joe likes the works. Reason? MOAR SPOKE LESS MESS IN THE CENTER.

I love both though and am an advocate of mesh style wheels. They're just so hawt.

RotorDad 04-07-2010 01:53 PM

To be honest you have two great sets of wheels & yes I'm ODD LOL

Rotary Inspired 04-07-2010 09:26 PM

Works hands down. I am a huge BBS fan but that set of works does the car more justice than the BBS. Its just the 2 sets we are comparing. I would generally say BBS. It would be a good problem to have to choose between 2 nice sets.

I'm not really sure why this debate still goes on... I'm pretty sure I said Works and last I checked, I don't negotiate!!


One more thing to keep in mind.... you brought BBS to DGRR last year, same wheels more than one year in a row = lame. :)









oh wait, forgot your not an FD guy (yet).... same wheels are ok.

I love the meshies as well. If the 'vert wheels were a decent size, I would've gotten them a long time ago.

You've got it though, it's the center of the things that throw me off. Somedays I like the BBS's carrying the 'mesh' all the way, other I like the clean yet different works.

Yeah, I got lucky with both sets, I won't lie. I appreciate your reasoning though, thanks. I think the works set her off a little more as well, and give her a little more attitude mabe? :dunno:

Yeah, well..... yeah. Pop vote is gonna take it and right now it looks like the works have it.

And hold on a sec, I own an FD.... just becuase she doesn't run doesn't mean I'm not an FD guy. How many FD owners have FD's that sit in a garage? I'm just part of the smaller group of owners who haven't driven them and have only had the opportunity to sit in the car and make vroooom vroooooom VROOOOOOM psshhhhhh noises :smilielol5:

Rotary Inspired 04-09-2010 08:19 PM

Nothing wrong w/ making the Vroom sounds. We've all done it.

I have been fortunate enough to have fb, fc, fd, and fe. They are all a little different. But the FD just screams hardcore sports car more than the others. You will enjoy it. I am now going from having a FC 10th AE and a Rx8 to having another vert and the 10th AE.

Definitely more attitude w/ the works.
