I've got those wheels. Nice for autocross, good and light, but beware the really shoddy finish. :happysad:

:edit: and if you drive hard/track/autox, be prepared for the center caps and hubcentric rings to melt and fall apart from brake heat.

hahaha. That has happened to me too many times Which is why I purchased aluminum hub centric rings.

As far as the BFG g-sport. They are too new to really post anything about them. I'm using the tried and true Falken Azenis. Heck if I won NE Divisionals last year on them they are good for me
