Bbs lm, lmr, rgr, rs-gt reps

I'm looking for a set of any of these in 19's for a coupe.
Ideally with fairly aggressive ET but nothing I can't fix with a spacer

Gunmetal or black with a deep dish (silver or polished)

I've searched and searched and searched and just can't find any.

Can anyone on here help????

I've been in touch with Chris at ******** (top bloke) and he's really
Gone out of his way to try and help.
Hopefully one of you guys knows of a secret shop, hidden in the shadows of the seedy underworld of modding

Cheers

Not sure I trust buying wheels from eBay.
Are they gonna be of good quality. I know I'm buys reps but don't want some made of toffee.

I like the cades tyrus but have heard bad things about the lip tarnishing and peeling in a matter of months -not good!

Has Chris not got any LM reps at all? I got mine from him and they were spot on!

Think he's got a set of silver.
Ideally looking for gunmetal but he's not got any, only 20's
Car is Tiag e92 so wanted a little contrast

I would worry about them beinig made of cheese. aAs i mentioned in another thread, you cant just setup a company and rattle wheels off. They have to meet international standards or they cant be sold. Lots of reps are made by companies who make oem wheels as their main business. More profit on aftermarket wheels though ;-)

Yeah, BM only has them in silver (I think)

Sparky - that looks awesome, exactly the sort of look I want. Think 19 will look better on a coupe tho

I'd have to agree there, can get away with 18's on a e90 as there is more detail from the side ie: the extra door.

Yeah, don't think I'll go smaller than 19 and I don't want to run 20's so that narrows the size down lol!

When you are searching use, BBS LM Championship edition. They are the 2 tone models I think.

Had them a few months, bought them off of alex. They have a machined lip which is highly polished. I seal them once a month with Poorboys Wheel Sealer and wax with Sonax Premium class carnuba wax to keep them shiney.

As for the other questions, not sure where alex got them from, CM Wheels I think. No tarnishing if you look after them.
