Maybe, if it had an 'RS' badge in the centre and was on a slammed Mk1 Escort

Maybe in it's time but I think the Minilte was better.

Maybe it's because my "car likes" run toward the German brands that my wheel tastes do also;
The above are all BBS's (I think), but I also like the TSW Hockenheim's - I know they became a bit of a chavvy wheel, but I still like
them!
And I also really like the wheel's I've got for my current project (Which is NOT mine, and I'm NOT paying for it!!!)
I just like em, think they're a "bit different"...

Minilites, 4 spoke Revolutions and the RS wheels are all classics that are rarely bettered IMO. The BBS things usually seen on BMWs etc. are way too
fussy and an utter ball ache to clean.

Anyone who's worked for a race team thats runs BBS wheels will hate them with a passion. I'm sure I spent most of 2004 cleaning those
stupid bleeping things with their millions of spokes and gaps.

me too, just had a pair of 9x15 revolution 5 spokes delivered
great quality rim, well finished, and well priced in my opinion
heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it breaks, hit them with it

No, because it's a 4-spoke, which only look marginally better than tri-spokes! Now if it was exactly the same but 5-spokes, it would be awesome.
