Default DC5R's, BBS RS', or NT-03's

So, I've been saving up for some new wheels, other than the usual Rota's, but I am having a hard time deciding. I am pretty set on choosing between these 3 wheels though. Either way I go, I know that they are going to be aggressive as hell, whether I use spacers or low offset. I do know that I will most likely be doing a 5-lug conversion, so that's not a problem. So let me know what you guys think, and for those of you that don't know, I drive a SSM EP3. Here she is currently along with a few pics of the wheels that I am choosing from...

I like bbs wheels a lot... Probably cuz my last few cars were euros. But I really like nto3s as well. 16in ones on an ep look tiny though (look at my pics on ep3 squad pg.1)

Are you on coilovers? If you dump it on bbs' that would be awesome!

Hell Yeah!! ^ I love the NT-03's, but I think I'm leaning towards the BBS wheels. I love the way my car looks with low offset

IMO, DC5R wheels are nothing special. If you want to drop $$ on wheels, make sure they are FORGED (not cast like DC5R wheels) and lightweight. Get the most bang for your buck so to speak, not just looks.

That's my .02

Very true, but I didn't want them because they're JDM, I just like the way they look.
I do agree though with what you're saying, might as well get Works since that's what they look similar to.

Damn, that's hot!! You need a wing though, you should get a Mugen wing and OMFG haha. I'll most likely end up getting my wheels re-barrelled nice and deep.
