Default BK Alloy Wheels

Hi Looking to change the 17" OEM wheels on my 2001 bugeye WRX to gold 18" Wheels. Fancied the BK Racing BK299G. Anyone ever used these wheels or know what their like to live with. Also what size tyres would be best 225/40/18, 225/35/18, 215/40/18 or 215/35/18 as all these sizes are offered

Are these the ones with the chrome rim?

If so, beware.

had a set of these and they suffered from corrosion on the chrome (known fault)

Managed to get them replaced under warranty

I had some too, they look nice when new but mine also suffered from corrosion on the outer polished part of the wheel.

They're also pretty heavy.

I would avoid them if I was you.
