Evo X GSR VS MR Wheels
Im shopping around for an MR however I hate the BBS wheels. Suppose I were to find a person willing to trade flawless wheels for flawless wheel is there any disadvantage to the GSR enkei's as opposed to the MR BBS wheels?

One is forged, one is cast.

Not sure why you hated the BBS...

well......you lost 2000$.....enkeis are 500$each and bbs are 1000$ each.......im speaking in canadien dollars....so usd you lost:1700$.

enkeis are 23pounds and BBS are 19pounds........NOT TOO SURE ABOUT THOSE NUMBERS.

for the rest.....is just a choice. I think they are both nice.

The dealer may even be willing to do the swap since it's definitely in their favor.

The X BBS rims are certainly not a straight trade item for GSR rims... Don't get taken!
