Lovely
you can usually get second hand sets for about 1k-1750 with tyres
Prices will vary, condition/tyres and desired fitment.
More pictures next week when I sort out correct ET.
Thanks.

that looks very low ...
Yeap. Suspension is fully adjustable via remote, there is also a "speed lowering feature" on mine, it goes back to stock height at 30mph. Renntech lowering module is the nuts!
how much lighter are these BBS wheels compared to AMG wheels of the same size?
I will weight them next week, the difference is obvious just by handling them.

Nice wheels man! Seeing that you just had them refurbed, I take it there are no plans on blacking out the centre part?

Yeah I thought it its was about that maybe a little more for the 9", my stock rear wheel was 29lbs.
Well that solution will definitely improve your handling with less unsprung weight

Love them, beautiful wheel, although i always thought they would look better with a nice big centre cap ! I added some caps to my old fakies and everyone else hated them so shows what I know

Thanks mate
Looks like I will not be running a spacer on the back as I cant get hubcentric in 5mm.
Another quick picture..

Looks fantastic, nice choice of wheel, loving the drop too. At least your suspension is adjustable too!

fantastic wheel, nice to see somebody putting genuine BBS's on. I have done but put reps made by rota on mine. BBS LM is always a winner, i am suprised you went for an 18 but i like the racing fat look with chunky rubber.. it would work if you were riding high but this thing is slammed!

Don't see why you need a 5mm spacer on the rear? Looks amazing as it is!
Personally wouldn't run non-hubcentric, especially on a powerful RWD car!
