Need help 19 inch bbs Lm hyper silver wheels or keep my style 230 wheels....

Chromey · 02-25-2014, 09:46 PM

Hi guys I've heard reps are good and some think bad.. I currently have a chance to buy a set of bbs Lm reps and also sell my style 230 and I'm starting to get cold feet as the 230 are sweet. Where I live though bbs Lm replicS or. Of are not common . I like having the after market look but also like stock... Any helpful opinions welcome , I know it's really what I think but I just can't make up. My mind.. Worried of the rep quality.

bbs lm reps 100% imo

Never did like 230 though... looks too basic/boring

Chromey · 02-25-2014, 10:28 PM

does anyone know the hub bore size of the e92

dtea604 · 02-25-2014, 11:11 PM

Its all the same 72.56 5x120 19x9 et 30 19x10 et 38-33 should work like a glove you. Linea corsa makes LM reps.

how much would you be willing to sell you 230 wheels for?

wasuber · 03-03-2014, 09:16 PM

Go LM and sell me your 230's :P just sayin, I live close to you maybe, no shipping involved

Chromey · 03-06-2014, 10:30 PM

sorry guys decided to keep oem

Deebo · 03-07-2014, 08:32 AM

Just updating the guys in this thread that were interested, I have a set of OEM 230s that will be available in the next couple weeks. New wheels are on their way!

Boxtyp3 · 03-07-2014, 08:48 AM

Correct me if I'm wrong but oem 230's are made by BBS right? So between reps and authentic, I would go for authentic in a blinkof an eye. They look nice IMO anyways. Just drop it and space it out.

Chromey · 03-07-2014, 09:34 AM

I agree and it is the very reason I didn't sell mine. I had a nice guy who was buying mine and I had a set of bbs lm wheels all lined up for 850 cash new but I just could do it. The stock rims although some have had issues are still stock and pass a much stricter process evaluation then reps... I had to stay with the 230's ... Put 10mm spacers on all 4 and now saving for a drop on eibachs or go al the way with h&r sport or race.....

I have a 12f and 15r spacers with no issues. If money is not an issue, go for coilevers or atleast a cup kit. Saves you time and money in the future for shocks replacement.

I rubbed with 15mm in the back? Pirelli p zero rft 255/30/19 ... I just went 10mm after that as if I lowered it I didn't want to deal with fender rolling etc

Really? That's odd? I have no prob at all and I'm even dropped by 1.5".what about your camber? I have -2.

Just got the car and haven't got a alignment but it's a little bit cambered in the rear as all bmw"s.
