SUPER new wheels from BBS

I've been watching these on BBS website since early in the year. Hollow spokes and hollow flanges... super slick.

A polished set of 22x10.5's with 315/30-22 Conti all around might look nice on the Prosecco Gold. Thoughts?

Guess where you put AIR in... where's the valve stem?

I'm liking the lines. Does an OEM centercap fit where the BBS one would be?
And in answer to your question, I think they would look hot on just about any car/color.

Brand new, not even in the country yet. Should be here by Christmas. Won't take OE centercaps.

I know where you put air in, but I won't tell!

But at $900/wheel maybe the Giotto III would be a better choice??

These sure are a different look, but a good one. Curious how the TPMS would work (or if they would work at all) because of how the valve is... would the sensors mount the same way?

I was thinking the exact same thing.

They actually look much better on the Cayenne than they do off a vehicle.

here is the silver painted version (although BBS says there is NO SILVER option available) on an Audi. Not sure if they're 20's or 22's... 22 I think.
