What style are these BBS wheels?

Twixboy · 12-26-2016, 11:38 PM

Need help identifying these. Seems like it would be a popular style, but I just don't know enough about them. I found someone asking $1000 for them.

BBS LM = Le Mans

BBS LM replicas. Fake LM's.

I like them. Seems like $1000 for all 4 would be a good deal, no? They are 18x8 and 18x9 which are good for my 3.0i. The tires only have 150 miles on them, but they are too skinny so I'd need to get new ones.

Make sure the offsets will fit your 3.0i. And the LM styling will look 1" smaller because of the double-lip. 19" looks like 18". 18" looks like 17".

I like the look of the LM's on the zed.
Check out ECS for the LM reps from a company named Alzor.

Sorry no side shots

Those look like the Alzor replicas. There's no cast in BBS logo showing in the area around the center. Looks like ECS Tuning is selling the Alzors for around $550 for a set of 4. $1,000 would be a good price if they were genuine, too much for reps.

I never knew that about the double lip. I found a pic of a Z4 with the 18" LM reps and they do seem a bit smaller than what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I think I'll pass on these. I'll be relocating back home in the spring so I'm starting to see what's out there since I need new tires anyways. Looks like you need to just buy new to get what you want otherwise you'll likely compromise on something whether it's tire size, offset, or whatever.

You can get some good deals on used wheels. Just have to haunt the for sale boards in the forums and be patient in looking for exactly what you want. I looked for about a year for the BBS RC090's for my E36, but eventually found a set that was nicely refurbished for $600.
