New Look? Help Me Choose.....
So i am wondering whether i should go for a new look with a new set of wheels. A new setup would be nice. But i kinda like my current setup so i am not sure. New wheels will also hurt my wallet 
So please help me decide. Any input would be appreciated.
Heres my humble setup right now. Nothing fancy, just point and shoots for reference purposes.
And this is what i had in mind

Your current setup is clean IMO...I like it. Those BBS are sick, and would look awesome on your car...but from what I've been seeing, BBS are $$$. Either way it's gonna look good. Are you dropped on Comptech springs with stock shocks? I'm thinking of maybe doing just springs for a small drop, because coils are major $$$.

yes sir, comptech springs. But stock shocks are coming out this sunday and koni's are going in. Maybe I'll take the opportunity to slap the BBS' on to get a "feel" of it

I like the BBS. I like the black rims too, but they seem a bit small IMO
I think you should save up for a C/O Setup. Tein basic is a good
choice. There are others you can get I'm just saying. Being able to
adjust your height is priceless

Doughboy, your current setup is hot! But the BBS wheels will look good too. If you can afford them and it won't kill your wallet-maybe give them a try. But if you decide to stay with your current wheels, you won't be sacrificing anything!

those bbs wheels remind me of the tl-s wheels... sweeeeeet
I laugh when peeps say tein basic's are better than koni yellows... ARE YOU KIDDING ME
you can argue tein ss vs koni yellows...
... but basics... 
no way
koni yellows offer tiny bit of height adjustment, granted in this aspect the basics beat it, but the koni's offer damper adjustment... with the turn of the knob they are back to stock.... basics are always on stiff.....
ps. even ss on its softest setting is stiffer than koni's on the softest, and koni can get stiffer than ss with a higher adjustment capability, so yeah koni > tein...

BBS wheels are cool, but i don't think those BBS would look good on the the 3G TL...i think your current setup is good...it's hard to find a wheel to match that color that would look good.

Just test fitted them. They are pretty damn flush. Koni's are going in tomorrow and I was going to slam her. Now I'm not sure if that will be a good idea if I end up getting these wheels. Maybe I should go with the second lowest perch? Or even the middle perch?

Thanks for all the replies folks. Looks like BBS wins by a landslide. Old wheels already sold.
Going to snap some pics tomorrow. Just waiting for sjo
