I am thinking LM for my TT too! Actually considering between LM and RE-Mg - anyone with experience with that?

 

you keen on 18's or 19's? Wonder if we can get some with the right offset?

Love Tokyo by the way

 

Too bad BBS doesn't make LM's for 996 TT/GT2/C4S.

But don't worry, these two models come with proper sizes and they look real good in a similiar way:

perfect i'd forgotten that they do these. I may drop him a line to get a price. Belgium is a stones throw away from london in a TT

Love them in gold

 

I have them in stock as I type:

18X8.5 5-130 ET56 BBS LM* 765.00
18X11 5-130 ET56 BBS LM* 867.00

19X8.5 5-130 ET55 BBS LM* 1003.00
19X11 5-130 ET50 BBS LM* 1156.00

Give me a call....

 

That Turbo with the LMs looks insanely good. The LMs are the best looking sports car wheels period.

But, he probably fuqed around with it to get it to fit which isn't so great in my books. I wouldn't wanna mess with the integrity of the factory assembly since these are 2-piece wheels with exacting specs.

It looks like he used the rare 19x11s with that 3" lip built for the E46 M3 which curiously enough can't handle 11s without fender mods.

BBS really should start making deep 3" dish LMs for the widebody 911s with no need for ghetto spacers. It would look absolutely proper.

 

thanks Damon, I'm based in London - HM Customs would have a field day in adding 30% to those prices, plus shipping

Unless youre coming over and can fit them in your hand luggage ?

cheers

 

Looking at the BBS Japan catalogue, they seem to have different variations of the LM now:
- LM
- LM-R
- LM champion edition (special for 2006)

Does anyone know what is the size that I should look for, for 18" wheel?

Thanks.

 

i intend to go standard - i.e. 8Jx18 and 11Jx18. ET50 and ET45 respectively is i believe the correct offset. I found a set that are 9J on the front - i think they'd still fit ok.

cheers

 

Does anyone have a picture difference between 18" and 19". I want these wheels too but I would also like to keep within 18" wheels (I had bad luck with 19" wheels and bending them)

Kaizu - Do you know how strong the alum wheels would be in terms of how easily it would dent?

Thanks in advanced.

 

LM's on the 996tt...






Better pics to come. It works no rubbing etc... however I will look into a 7mm spacer all around or maybe even 15mm I'm not too sure but they don't look aggressive enough right now they are sick but just not aggressive enough.

 

awesome, i've seen those alot on different cars and i just don't get tired of them, even better on a turbo.

 

sick man.......sick man........gorgeous though Phil

 

yes the pictures where taken after the car was up in the air, they look much better now if its not raining out I'll take a few more pics but for my tastes I think I will need 15mm in the back and 7mm on the front..

 

I think Re-Mg (what I have now) is a very good alternative. Lighter too!
