Hey Damon,

Do they come in 18" for 997S (red brakes) fitment? What's the weight of wheels for a set of 18" or 19" for 997S? Thanks.

Sizing above is all they are offering. No MB bolt circles yet. Hopefully soon.

19X8.5 5-130 ET55 BBS LM-R $1173.00
19X11 5-130 ET63 BBS LM-R $1326.00

They don't custom make a deeper dish due to the stepped lip.

I believe BBS is only doing Porsche and BMW at this time on them.

Any wheel weight #s for different sizes?
Cost?
I have CCW forged one piece 9.5x18 et68 =19.2lbs front, 10x18 et52 =20.6lbs rear

p.s. a high offset wheel like my fronts is what the 928 guys have been looking for and not finding. I'm not surprised that those new wheels are for 911s.

I really like the look of this wheel. It most closely resembles the bbs race wheels, even more so than the E88.

Can you get the centers in gold?
Are there any plans to make these in wider dimensions, ie 19x12 with offsets for the widebody 997s?
If not, since it is 2 piece, can you order the center sections and have them placed on the outers for the E88s?
