Hi All,

I would like to thank Ron for these gorgeous wheels without taking a big pinch out of my wallet. The wheels look really good and close to the real BBS LM's and the quality and service was great dealing with Ron@ Modbargins. I know the car is not lowered, but will be looking into that with some Ksport down the road. Here is an teaser for now of what it looks like Enjoy. Excuse the BBS caps, but I love the way the red with gold lettering of the BBS caps I couldn't stand without. All comments are welcome and suggestions

No, I didn't sell the 19's so I had to eat it and just get tires from Justin. I really really want them in 20's and the 19's now are how much I paid for them 2 months prior to the 20's made there debut.

Got it...saw your 19" in the classified section, thought you sold it and pulled the trigger on the 20", the one you were drooling over for awhile there.

Still looks good though. What tire size are you running? I'm running plus size tires on my 19" and the gap is not that bad at all. Planning to install spacers in the rear to push it out a bit more to the fender soon though.

Thanks. I'm running F 245/30/19 R 285/35/19 Is your car lowered? I'm on Non-sport suspension so it looks like its a snow plow I want to add spacers, but unsure what size to go with. Post up some photo's of yours once you get your spacers and I'll see how that looks then make my decision.

You meant 245/40/19? I'm running the same size up front but 275/35/19 rear. My has the sport suspension so I guess that helps with the look department. Will definitely post up pic once I figure out what spacer size I should order. Current rear offset if 33, thinking of getting the 17.5mm spacer to push it all the way out but then I need to be concerned with the plus size tires issue also.

You running a M5 or M5tech front. I see no fogs??? Looks good, but I liked the Sprints. I guess I am biased though...

It's OEM M5 front that's no Fogs. Thanks for the compliment. I do miss the Sprinits after I sold them.
