Wheel Directory: Kingpin KP 307 (BBS CH Replicas) 18x8.0 +35 / 18x9.0 +35
BBS CH Replicas from the UK, 18x8 and 18x9 +35 offset both sizes
Weight - 18x8 ~25lbs, 18x9 ~26.5lbs (not light, but didn't care, these are for dailies and maybe a HPDE or two, not autox) Purchased from here, 3 day shipping to the U.S. and yes that is indeed the cost for all 4: http://stores.ebay.com/royalwax/ I was going to go with ASGA Spirit wheels (replica STI Ts wheels) but they aren't currently availible in silver and I wasn't going to wait the however long to get them... And I REALLY wanted real BBS CH wheels, but I can't afford them. So these were the perfect option, replica be damned! They look FANTASTIC! Federal 595-R 245/35/18's all around, had a bitch of a time with these tires... Had one with a bad bead, and a second that is out of round. Replaced one, currently living with the other until it gets to be too much (can't notice anything right now, drives quite nicely) http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep1.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/bbsrep2.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep4.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep7.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep3.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep6.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...en/BBSrep5.jpg |
Not a big fan of running BBS caps on reps, but still very nice wheels. Classic.
Enjoy. |
They came with the wheels, just some stickers. Looking into other centercaps.
|
Are you lowered at all?
|
Yes! RCE Yellows, lower the car about 3/4" which is absolutely perfect!
|
I emailed Jordan at Royal Wax to get the true manufacturer and model name for this wheel so I can list it correctly in the Wheel Directory.

I wouldn't say "perfect". The front could use a little more IMO. I think the wheels like nice though. Congrats

Got some better center caps... No more fake bbs red caps, just fake Subaru stuff :p Matches the car perfectly. I also painted the tips of the wheel studs silver, and I hate to say it, but I think I need normal chrome lugnuts to finish the look... http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...10544694_n.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...56496451_n.jpg |

I've always liked the CH's. Had them on my RX8:
Besides the colour, the reps look quite good! |

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...0BRZ/tint5.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...0BRZ/tint4.jpg I think the color is just right. BTW updated pics with the current lugs and center caps. |
