I am mightily impressed with the quality and finish.
They are made in Germany
They are TUV approved.
Come with proper BBS carbon fibre effect centre caps with 3D BBS logo.
The studs around them are high quality screw in metal ones and are replaceable.
Wheels are not very heavy.
They are extremely well packaged with rim protectors fitted etc.
If any of you are interested; I have already discussed a groups buy with the supplier
Price is around the £400 mark for the LM wheels with centre caps included, for an extra £25 a full set of TUV approved bolts and TUV approved locking bolts can be supplied (both made in Italy).
They are available with the centres in gunmetal, flat black, gloss black, silver and soon available in white all with polished rim.
BBS CH are also available in a choice of colours too and I think they are a little cheaper than the LM's.
I will be able to get more details to post here soon but if you like the sound of this as a GB then please post you interest here. Please don't PM as inbox is already quite full :wink:
I'll post up some nice detail and general pics in the next few days.
As Im still considering a rim change I would be interested to see some decent pictures mate. Would also be interested to hear if they can do staggered sets (ie 8.5x19 front, 9.5x19 rear) and what price these would be? Out of interest where is the supplier located?
I guess its the guy that advertises on ebay, Mark someone..? I have considered going to look at a set to see the quality as they are quite local to me & I could save on postage

I always have to laugh when someone thinks because something's made in Germany then it's "quality".
Yes, German cars have a very good reputation but just because "made in Germany" is stamped across a manufactured item then don't assume it's fit for purpose.
The alloys sound good but the proof is in the user feedback and the analysis of weight, balance, corrosion resistance, hardness, impact resistance etc.
I just don't want to see people ripped off so please folks, do your homework.
Feedback on the wheels after 1000+ motoring would help and some good pictures.
Will everyone say these are quality if they crack after a year?

Did you get centre BBS centre caps from him included Kev? Can you unpack one and get a few decent pictures of them before you get tyres fitted ? Would be good to see some
It must be the same guy KentishTT. I spoke to him on the phone I think his name is Mark Burnden.
