BBS CH 19" opinions?

So I just picked up a set of staggered 19s from a guy in LI for a really reasonable price. I am getting my Continental DW tires and throwing these on this week and kind of having a self debate to keep them or not.

These are the pictures from the guy I purchased them from.

Will be running stagged 235/35/19 F and 265/30/19 R. Going to try to get pictures up soon whenever I can get these on.

If you don't throw these on what are you going to be sitting on? These are nice wheels IMO.

I am just super indecisive. I should probably decide after I get them on. If I didn't put them on I would continue to run my ugly af 17"stock rims w/ the run flats until I found something else.

I've heard them referred to as steam rollers and I couldn't agree more!

Today's wheels are meant to be light, and a true enthusiast wouldn't even use the center caps

Well I guess I am mounting them. I really had no preference on brand but the deal was too good to pass up.

Also I'm not sure how I feel about the center caps either cause two of them are scratched haha.

I think they look great, OP. Hadley and Torgus are not very nice people. You'll learn they have no idea what they are talking about.

So far I am digging these wheels. The Continental DW tires are pretty nice too, my fear is the how thin the sidewall is... makes me a bit paranoid. I do wish it was a bit more colorful, thinking of temporarily dipping them either aluminum, gold or bronze for now and hopefully next season I'll make sometime and sand them down and repaint(or just get them powder coated).

Anyone have any recommendations about the tmps? its not too annoying but would ultimately love to get rid of it is possible.
