BBS RGR or CH black edition? - BMW M3 Forum.com (E30 M3 | E36 M3 | E46 M3

After looking at a few different wheels, namely the 360Forged Mesh 8, BBS CH black edition, and BBS RGR, I am thinking of going with BBS this time around. I am wondering which of these two wheels you would go with. The CH would be the black edition and have +20 offsets front and rear which requires no spacers. The RGR would be the diamond black; their offsets are not ideal at +32 front and +25 rear, so would need to probably run 10mm spacers front and back. The advantage of the RGR is that they are forged and extremely light whereas the CH weigh a few pounds more per wheel than stock. So given this which would you choose for cosmetic and performance purposes?

Oh btw, the weights of the wheels are approx 26F/28R for the CH and 20F/22R for the RGR. The RGR cost 70% more than the CH.

That is a tough call between the 360 forged and the CH Black...

What's the price difference betweent he RGR and 360 Forged?
I would never get a wheel that was actually heavier than stock. You can feel a performane difference with a lighter wheel.
