Does anyone know if the BBS wheels come with a clearcoat finish?

yes the lip and face are all clear coated. the clear coat is pretty much indestructable and easy to clean with a damp towel. bbs wheels are very low maintenence.

Damn minsoo didn't know you were on here. I thought I told you back in Sept that I got the 911? I would love to get HRE, but unfortunately I can't afford to pay another $1k over the price of BBS LM, which is what I will probably get.

LM's. Just pure classic beauty, like the car you're putting them on.

I don't see why everyone is so in love with the LM-R. I just do not think they look nearly as nice as te LM...at least the pics I have seen of them on a white Cayman and on a very sweet looking white BMW M roadster. Any pics of these on a 997?

Alright after thinking forever, pulling my hair out (almost), talking to friends, and other board members, I have eliminated the IForged as a choice due to potential problems with the wheels, likely poor customer service if something were wrong, and probably having a tough time selling them when the time comes. So I am left now with the LM, Work Bombracher RXX (19"), or just sucking it up and getting a set of HRE C20. I LOVE the Work wheels, but they are so damn heavy...around 31 lbs rear and 28 front. HRE is a bit out of my price range, though I would love the lightweight and look of the wheel. Any suggestions on where to get the best deals on HRE?
