Amazing how some wheels totally change the look of the car.

Thoughts on the look vs before?

The BBS Reps were very much an OEM+ look that I really liked, albeit the terrible finish... The new wheels are very much BRO I GOT 18" RIMZZZ .... but with the drop it doesnt look horrible. Much easier to clean and I THINK they are lighter... At a total of $550 for the wheels, installed with the Michelin tires I am happy to move on.

The other cars are also needing my attention so I would like to move beyond this. I really want to sort out 2 minor items of the backup camera and adding the bass, so some time in the trunk is likely to be coming soon.

I'm a big fan of the CH look, but not worth the pain lol.

Yea I had saved a single CH that I would've happily purchased, but that would've only made sense if the cracked wheel was one of the rears. I can explain why, but lets just say I am happy to have a matched set of wheels that only required a matched set of hubcentric rings that I already owned.

Literally the same size wheel and same tire as before.. 215/40 tire, but the RIMZZZ definitely look bigger

Type of setup you'd see from someone with 3 baby mummas and overdue child support but he took his tax return straight to the wheel shop

(I can't hate on the hustle)

If you guys knew how I drive this thing... its actually pretty amazing the wheels lasted as long as they did. Had I not just bought a bunch of tires going through this nonsense I likely would've had 17" wheels... but that has sailed.

Anyways, I also am ~93% sure I know when the driver front wheel cracked. This only matters if you live on the West Side of Los Angeles, but that lip is not something you want to hit at speed.. IYKYK

It's about time you started hearing the good word of our lord and saviour, Land Rover.




... just not mine obviously.

I'd be running 16s or 15s on LA roads. I ran 16s on my E30 here in FL and still managed to bend two of my XXRs. That was a piece of debris though, we do not get many pot holes or gigantic expansion joints in my part of the state.
