Damn, I wanted the Champ White ones but still. I think I'm pretty decided on the BBS wheels now. This EP wouldn't happen to be yours now would it?

NT03's. As much as I love BBS RS's, they always look retarded on EP3's unless they're like 16"+, at least +15 offset or lower, and the car is SLAMMED.

15x6 BBS RS weighs about 12lbs, so around average I'd say for a little larger/wider wheel.

I think I'll go 16. I actually like 15's but I'm tired of having to buy new front mudflaps after tearing all of mine up from scraping speedbumps and on big road dips lol. Dumb reason but hey. So prolly 16x9 +25 with some 215 45 16's.

Go big or go home...

So here's what I've found so far about cost (just in case you guys are wondering)...

Fresh set of wheels - $1200 shipped
Kodiak Lips - $350 shipped
Tires (I got a hook up) - $200 for a full set of 215 45 16's
I want to paint them and I have a buddy with a shop that owes me and will do it for free so - $00
Random things I might need for the assembly i.e. silicone, new bolts, etc. - $100

So I'm lookin' at around $1850 or so for a fresh, custom set of BBS'. I can dig it.
