On the verge of purchasing these wheels for the bb4. Thought

Maybe it's worth adding though that around 3/4 of those wheels are going to be a few hundred each, let alone for 4.

Don't want to put a downer on things though

IMO 4G suit wheels with fewer spokes rather than more, if that makes sense?

Yep, totally agree. Those wheels were not serious contenders for being purchased, merely examples of what styles look best on a silver BB4. Then some suitable ones, at the correct price can be sourced in a similar style to his favoured taste.

A useful tool imo.

17's are indeed a bit crashy.
The tyres on 16's are expensive though, so for me it has to be 15's or 17's.

I went for hedging my bets and have one of each
