Default Differences between BBS CH's and RC's??

Does anyone know the difference in weight and build quality between the CH's and the RC's? (I would be purchasing 18's) I like the look of the CH's but am looking for the quality of the RC's. Any advice or info would be appreciated, as well as information on who has the best price for the CH's.

Regards,
Raja Hamilton

Default The CH is a complement to the RC...

Both of these wheels are built the exact same way. I'm not sure exactly what BBS calls "the process" but the RC and CH are identical in quality, weight, and strength. Basically, BBS is just giving you the option of one wheel type with two designs. So it really just comes down to which one you like better. I think the pricing is the same too.

P.S. RC's are better

Default Call Top Notch

Talk to Dave at Top Notch. They seem to have very competitive prices on the BBS Wheels. They are very close to BBS in Georgia and have all the wheel weights and design info. RC's are very light and very strong.<p>RobeyTT: 225TTC,Lake Silver w/Blk TT Cloth,APR,Stable Harness Bar,BBS-RC's,P-ZeroC's,Bailey,KW Coilovers.<ul><li><a href="http://www.topnotchauto.com/">http://www.topnotchauto.com/</a</li></ul>

I think RC is more expensive. 17" RC is about the same price as 18" CH.

Default Thanks for the info

I was wondering if there were any differences. I will probably order one of the two this coming week, so I guess I just need to take a look at a few pics and see which one I like better. Thanks again.
