Excellent banter, at this point I give LA Tech a slight lead but I'm sure it's not over yet....

LA Tech, I respect the fact that you give your customers options but ultimately leave it to the customer for the final decision. A good business always gives multiple options, advise and/or warnings, but the final verdict should always be the consumer.
+1 to your business. I'm sure you've faced many scenarios with consumers with different taste and likings. Keep up the good customer service

And I respect you too, but you fell into the Ben trap and wasted the entire day typing with the most negative and critical person on the porsche boards.

Get back to modding all those nice cars.

Dont give up yet, it's just getting good. Make some smack up quick, like it really is your car, until your new one rolls in. Anyway, I can't believe your out that quick.

Boxzing, Socal996, Maxferran and Tanman. You guys are awesome. If you guys are ever in the L.A. area I'd love to give you a tour of the new shop. Thanks for the support.

I love the look of the Work wheels compared to my BBS LMs because of their absence of a stepped lip. They look less busy and give the appearance of filling the wheel wells.

MrBonus, I like the look of your BBS LMs because of its unique machined lip finish and the fact that it'll always be the timeless classic that the Work Brombachers essentially copied.

I totally agree, you can only advise and inform. In the end, the customer is always right. Just for future reference, it's not worth it to get into an argument with Ben (as evidenced by this most recent exchange). I did enjoy how you called his wheels "tucked in"...I don't agree, just thought it was funny since he's constantly criticizing offsets.

Thanks, Benjamin. There are a lot of copies of the LM but the Works are definitely my favorite.

I'd have the LMs on my car if they made 19x12s for the widebodies. I seriously think the only ideal fitment BBS makes for the LM is the E46 M3 which i took full advantage of (ran thru two sets).

Ben you and LaTech need to go drinking together that weekend after the tour....please buy each other shots of choice and makeup.......
Both of you have great points and each have your own Wheel Wizardry opinions....all of which make since for us all.
Thanks to you both for sharing offset advice also - helps me to narrow my choices and whether or not rolled fenders is my vote or not
