Poll - Which do you prefer BBS Splities or Kylamis

[bstardchild]

15' Splities



14' Kylamis



they really don't look like 14's tho.....

[cruisin_chris]

kylamis id say!

[dub envy]

I'd have said the bbs if they weren't black.

Maybe a lighter shade of grey, but not black on a white car....

[carmadaaron]

14s make it look neater.

[dubpolo]

i vote for the BBS! only because your doing mine! hehe

[polopowah]

kylamis just look so damn sweet dunno why, cant put my finger on it, are they smaller, making the car lower? perhaps thats what swings it for me

Both sets of alloys look good but IMHO the Kylamis swing it by the slimmest of margins - I bet they're soooooo much easier to keep clean and you're right, they really do look bigger than they're actual size - maybe the way the spokes extend to the edge of the rim helps the effect?

Out of interest for my own winter wheels project (a while off yet!), when you swop between the 14"s and the 15"s - do you need to adjust the speedo or have your tracking & balancing redone - or is it a negligible difference between the two?

Cheers

I think they are easier to keep clean and yes it's the spoke thing that makes em appear bigger - upside is I can drop the balck and white thing and de-bump strip the car

No difference roling radius is the same and no diffence in tracking - balancing is down to wheels and both sets are balanced perfectly

I prefer the BBS's. You are all fooled by the pictures - the Kyas look better but the BBS's are nicer. Ist doch logisch, oder? Zweiteilige rennsporträder anstatt einteilige werksräder.

Yeah - I know and they took more effort to make em look non stock but the kyas are really good looking for a 14' inch rim and look more like 15's

Lost me there!!!

Does it ride better on the 14s?
