**The Official Style 5 Thread**

[DatUtahGuy]

Since these are some of the most sought after wheels right along with BBS RS's, I think it's time r3v has a thread showcasing the timeless classiness of this wheel. Doesn't have to be pictures of your car, but any car that flaunts these puppies and looks good while doing it.

Mmmmm style 5's. I shall own a set one day

[Shangsta]

I like how people are spending rs type money on style 5's when they are really a sub 800 wheel. That being said I love style 5's

SO, this should be moved to the wheel and tire section. Any who this should be good.

17" & 18" Style-5's are only sought after because they resemble the RS and can be had for dirt cheap.
I Don't think its accurate to even remotely compare them to RS's.
People would much rather have the real deal RS but sometimes they can be cost prohibitive.

That said....I agree these style-5's can be nice . When done right that is.

I've never thought of these as all that sought after, or as an RS look a like, they're just a great, classic looking wheel in their own right.

Lol.

Not an RS look-a-like but definitely RS-ish in appearance.. They evoke the the whole RS feel.

Not so much sought after either. Just easily obtainable.
Nobody goes out out looking specifically for Style-5's ....unless they are budget limited.
If there were a a set of style-5's and and equally sized set of RS's for sale at the same price surely EVERYONE would choose the RS's. ;)

OP did glorify them a little over the top there, but they are nice looking wheels. The E32 spec ones did the trick nicely for my E30 M3 setup. Still had to have the back side of the front wheels CNC shaved to clear the calipers, but not a big deal.
