View Full Version : Looking for something like this
I'm a bit old school, (quiet down the laughter)
Looking for the pewter colored BBS "style" wheel with the spokes similar this guy.
NOT CHROME!
Any ideas guys?

Beyern Mesh (http://tbyrne.com/gtointro.html) (go to Wheels/Tires) or ASA AR1 (http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/DisplayWheel.jsp?w heelMake=ASA&wheelModel=AR1&wheelFinish=Silver+w%2FMachined+Lip) Good Luck!

If u go to bestwheels.com, you can get something like that with staggered fitment. Wheels and tires for about $1500. They are called RPM 505 wheels

Looks like you have what I am looking for.. Silver/pewter is my preference...
What's the biggest rear tire you can fit? I already rolled the rear fender lips and "tweaked" the inner wells to fit a 275-50-15 M/T Drag Radial...
Thanks guys!

well i rolled my fenders and with the 9 inch wheel in the back i went with 265 fuzion zri's. i think they run wide because they rubbed after the fender rolling. the offset is +45. so you might check into a different tire brand. another option is the 8 inch wheel that has a +40 offset. another guy with these rims claims to have 275's, rolled fenders and no rub. i think he was running a different brand tire though.

Good info... "Thanks"
Just laying the ground work for another "version" for the toy. Over the winter I think the "drag only" direction will change and switch to a serious street car with twin turbos on a stroker with some wide meats all around. The BBS wheel style just seems to fit that "mode" a bit better than the big and little Bogarts.

Those rear wheels seem to bulge out from the car too much....

That kicks ass... Nice shots too...
Thank you.

The current plan is to keep them for race events and testing. Spetter figures 900 HP is easy with the TT set up so I will need some "stickies"...

I immediately thought of the RPM 2's from Enkei but they don't make them to fit our cars. A teaser anyway...

i nearly bought myself a set of these:
replica (read: fake) m3 csl wheels (in non-m3 +42 rear offset for the 9.5 wide)
http://www.revozport.com/webpics/revocslwheel/IMG_ 0646.JPG
there are a number of sellers on ebay, as well as vendors that loiter around the e46 boards...

There are also the wheels on the Justice car that are very similar. You can call AFG and they should be able to get you the specs.

Thanks everyone...
So many choices...
I'm really leaning towards this design.
The extra wheel "lip" makes the wheel package look a bit less front wheel drive...
Are these ASA wheels clear anodized or clear coated or????
I'm not a big "polish the wheels" kind of guy in spite of having those "spit polished" Bogarts on the car now. Simichrome every week is a PITA and I'd rather wash and drive.
Thank you again for all your efforts guys!

HP Evo's are nice- Cyclone GTO has them.
