bbs lm reps

[K Simmonds]

In my opinion there is nothing to be gained by fitting wheels over 8"s wide to an S2 that you want to use on the road day to day. Wider rims/tyres tend to make the car pick up on seams in the road ect, ie tram lining.

i want 8x18s but cant get the lms in that size .ive got a set of dotz mugello on the way in 8x18 but not sure there going to look right.

They look nice, but the BBS are that bit nicer again. Can you not get them in 8"X 18??

[s2robbo]

wish i could there my favorite rim . not sure how many companys are making the reps.

[K Simmonds]

The real deal BBS items are the absolute nut's!! Light weight and super strong. If I were to buy a set for my Coupe I would go for a 7.5"X17" ET 33 running a 215/225,45 tyre.

[K Simmonds]

Stunning!!!/. What size are you running there??

[s2robbo]

your teasing me now there the muts nuts . i want some.

[K Simmonds]

If you could stretch to it then I'd save my penny's and get the genuine article.

They are 18\8,5

8.5 rims on an ET35 clear all the suspension and steering on a standard S2 Coupe. That is what I run.

I suspect that ET40 will be too close to the steering arm.

ET30, you would need to check the arch clearances, as others have already pointed out.

HTH.

Cheers,

i tried these on my car today there the quattro reps 8x18 got qouted 700 with yoki parada 2s .i think they make the car look a bit more aggressive looking.

they look nice and a bit different from the usual alloys fitted.

so are they the one's your going to stick with?

[s2robbo]

not sure ive put a £50 deposit down on a set of mugellos and still not sure if they will look right . i only put those quattros on my car becouse i was trying out diffrent of sets and they come up looking ok.
