Are these BBS legit?
 
So far looks legit, but they are so old that im not sure too! They are RG345 17x7 +48 56.1mm so I find them a great OEM+ upgrade at 15lbs!

Yes these are legit. These wheels were produced in this spec for the JDM GC8 Sti.

they are legit. they were a factory option wheel for bugeye wrx. they aren't heavily coveted because of how narrow they are and that they don't clear brembos.

Thanks Kyle! But for a functional POV, they should be quite on the spot right? Forged, durable, stock size, and 15 lbs - would it be a great DD upgrade vs the stockers? (esp with sticker tires)

The s209's Tri-Color paint scheme with red highlights sure looks tempting.
White car, Black secondary trim with red highlights wherever there are blacks. , Gold wheels. Pretty visually tempting! Although i am leaning towards a simple 2 color build. BLACK AND WHITE! haha

For a direct replacement they will be nice. It's also relative of the cost. RPF1 are available a good bit wider at ~$250usd per wheel. That's used BBS price range here and the marginal increase in weight is relative to gaining 2" of wheel section width.
