Ok well. So I've got the BBS Ra's.... so I wanted to pick up another set of wheels I can daily drive on, not worry about messing up my bbs wheels, so I picked up a set of Traklite wheels. There your average "tuner" wheel. I know a supplier (TRU motorsports) and they say good things about them and there build quality

TrakLite Crosstread 15x8 4x100 & 4x114.3 +15 Offset Silver Machined Lip. I'll be putting a set of 195/50's on them until I can get a smaller set

Nice dude. Those will look sharp. In my opinion there's nothing wrong with a well made knock off, unless a car is built for show. And as long as they are designed and manufactured well. Only reason I own a set of Works is because I got a crazy deal on them.

Excited to see them on. :)

Lookin good! The BBS are going to look BAUCE once they are all shiny!

On a side note, I may have to hit you up to help me with my 87 golf.. Thing is so close to being reliable if it weren't for this one fuel issue. Are you familiar with CIS distributors? I noticed yours had one from the picture.. Or something that looks like it on a 16v, mine is only 8v.
