Great wheels we run them on several track and street cars.

dummy center lock is a nice finishing touch as well..

Kudos..

These wheels are not 15 and 18 lbs that I can assure you.

The 12x18's are right @ 20-21 lbs and the 18x9 are about 19 lbs.

This is still a 3 piece wheel and the only wheels that I have ever scene that BBS made with those weights were specifically made by BBS in 1 piece forged magnesium. This was a 24 hours LeMans application/fitment for 996 RSR's.

Which were throw away wheels after the race since they were so thin and brittle.
