Well spotted indeed! It's the locking nut and was temporarily off the car.

brand New bbs lmr’s

I have a set of brand new never installed bbs lmr’s size 19x 8.5 and 19x 11 oem offsets. I’m willing to lose a little bit of money just to sell them. Still in box. Call or text me at 718 415 9365 please send me your email and I will send pics. I can’t seem to post the pic on here for some reason.

No lmr’s more expensive but my price is even lower than a brand new set of LM’s I believe.

The LMR is such a great looking wheel and suits the 997.

I have the Champions RG5s I bought from a member. Absolutely love them!!
I just got them refinished in matte black centers with gloss lip and they look outstanding.
The difference in weight is absolutely noticeable right away specially breaking and turning. I had the opportunity to buy a almost new set of HRE P40SC recently and I love mine so much that I passed on them.

Wheels are a personal taste but make sure you get a reputable manufacturer and Forged!!

Just my thought.

Yet another vote for the Champion RG5s - An incredibly light, forged monoblock! I like a wheel with a lip and the RG5 is beautiful!

I just heard about this company. If you don't mind what did you end up paying for a set? What diameter? Wheel weight f/r?

i measured 12x19.
it was 10,5kg without center lock system. thats roughly about 23lbs.
i dont know if its allowed to talk about prices here.
i am not affiliated with this company. but it was less then 4k incl center lock system, shipping, customs etc.
it took about a month.
show me one "manufacturer" that has comparable prices for forged monoblock wheels custom made to your specs.

I purchased my 2007TT with 20" RG5's with polished lips and just did not like the look so we powder coated the two tone gloss black with red accent lip here in my shop. I get a lot of comments on these wheels.
