Red,

It's all down to personal taste, but for me the BBS are too bling, but the Sportec ones are more in keeping with the RS style.

Have you considered the relative weights of the wheels? Can make a big difference. Personally, I would go for the MTM bimoto's if they weren't so heavy.

Sportecs are heavy and they buckle (well the 19"s do anyway...)

Not keen on the look of the BBS's as much...I prefer the single piece BBS's.

BBS only, best wheels and LM's are in the BBS top line, if one pice then BBS CH. Sportec are very soft and they buckle, MTM buckles even more, used both of them and now waiting for LM's. I prefer 18". IMHO.
