I don't like BBS LMs ... Too busy, too weird, I dunno. Just don't sit well with me.

Love the cars though

They need to be an inch bigger (or more). Also, some tire gel wouldn't hurt.

I thought there was some issues with running aftermarket wheels on GTRs? Did wheel manufacturers figure out a way around that or something? I know I've seen other GTRs with non-OEM wheels too.

That also voids the warranty, among many other things.

The GTR is ugly, no need to be afraid. That's like being heterosexual and afraid to admit it

The R34, even the R33 IMHO trumps the current GT-R in terms of looks. I don't think there's any denying that a nicely modded S13 or S14 is worthy.

Overrated rims. These fit the GTR much better.

Don't like. LMs are for Euros, especially the BMW 3 Coupe/M3.
