I'm getting bored of my bbs wheels, and I really like the look of the sportmax, plus they are cheap as hell (price wise)
Here are some pics of the sportmax wheels:

I would probably get them in 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, gunmetal.
Here are my bbs rs wheels.

Bored with BBS's? Blasphmey.
Are they 17's? I want em lol.
I like the sportmax's. Since my car is going to get slammed some time this week I need to go up to at least 17"ers. Lift my car up just a bit.

The BBS are classics, but I think the times being what they are...the sportmax's update the car a bit.

I like mesh but chunkier and beefier, which is why I'm going with the ADR M Sports

I love the sportmaxes.. but I'm scared that i'd get bored with them because they're not JDM tigheness or something. They're so cheap I'll always feel like i want something better.

For the price, they're great.
I want to pick up a set as well. The only problem I see is the fronts need a spacer to bring them out. They don't offer the correct offset and what siman had is the best that you can get.
I say go for it. For like $500, youd be hard pressed to find better wheels. Especially ones that're brand new!

Those Sport Max look ok, but they are going to be HEAVY.
Your car is so clean and pretty. Don't put cheap wheels on. It will just make your car look cheap.
I am not saying you have to spend a ton on money, you don't. Just shop around and look for some quality wheels without breaking the bank.
These don't qualify as "not breaking the bank" but they are hot! Don't know what offsets Supras run, these might be a little low.

Keep your wheels. It'd be a huge downgrade to switch them out for those... whatever they are.

That's funny!
check out my wife's wheels.

and her new wheels.

I just don't want to put that kind of money into a 15 year old car... if it was new I could justify it.
If I did decide to get something jdm, I'd probably go with GTN's since I don't see them much on supras. I had them on my wrx and loved the look.

How big are thes BBS's Matt? If you do end up ridding of them.. I would LOVE to take them off your hands :naughty:

They are 17x8 and 17x9. Tires are brand new... only 1000 miles on them.

BBS RS's are nice, light but they are boring. Ive got a set of 16in with gold centers and the only reason I still have them is the tires and my budget. Those wheels above look similar to newer BBS imo. Either way, go light.
