Gert Rocks, I bought all my Techart stuff and GT2 kit from him about 5 years ago. His service is second to none.

another positive vote for Gert.
i am just amazed at how quick the stuff gets here to me in San Antonio.
yeah, he is hurt by the euro but sometimes the extra is worth it because you
will get all the correct parts. Once you have been jacked by another with incorrect parts the premium is worth it.
the sad part is that i buy all these things from him then sell my car

OK..I know this is an old old post, but I have 2 questions if anyone can help me answer them. I don't know much about them but Im trying to source a set for my car.

1. Do they make these for other applications besides P-Car?
2. Are they intended only for racing applications or can they be daily driven?

I keep hearing mixed information saying they aren't good for daily driving, they are... So i've done my research a little and found that the magnesium aren't for daily driving but the forged alluminum centers are. People keep telling me the BBS GT's are the one's I want, but it's not.

BBS GT (not the same as the Race wheels)


BBS Race

Matt agreed! These wheels are strong enough for daily driving indeed, and they aren't just for race applications or use, who in the he'll would run 20's on the track?! That's the proof right there, street wheel in that size !? I still wouldn't even run 19's!

John,

I would like to recap for you what took place during our wheel transaction which was over 3 months ago.

The wheels you purchased had a slight blem on them and I reduced the price accordingly to help you out.

You agreed we shook on it accordingly and you took the wheels.


Hopefully you are enjoying the wheels as I have not heard anything from you since.

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.

Fabryce,

You guys are located in Santa Ana? Can you send me a PM. I can't send you a PM since I have less than 15 post. Have a few question about the wheels.

Thanks,
