Wheels similar to BBS LM? where to buy?

Tallest · 05-17-2009, 06:14 PM

What wheels are out there from different manufacturers that looks similar to BBS LM?

I looked at prices for BBS LM and it's a more than i want to spend. I think 300 euros per wheels is a top for what I want to spend. The wheel may be doesn't have to be BBS LM but I want at least a very similar style for less money. Can you guys suggest me something?

Through search I found only Linea Corse LeMans (not cheap) and Rial Daytona (apparently one wheel weighs like a space shuttle). I can't find any manufacturers for replicas either.

Also, it's good if they come in both 18 and 19in to give more freedom choice, have correct offsets and weight not more than 12kg. As for colour I'm going for gunmetal or silver finish.

appreciate the help, I'm sure vendors can chip in as well.

Just for the record, this is the wheel.

There are various LM replicas. Search around at some of the supporting vendors' site like **********s.com or Jlevisw.com

If you think Linea Corse Lemans are expensive then i dont know what to tell you....

wheeldude.com has a good selection of them. I think $1299 for 19 inch.

Linea Corse makes nice stuff. I've got the Z2S wheels on my E39 540 touring. Like someone else here said, if you think their stuff is expensive............. If the Linea LM reps are too much $$$ you'd better stick with your stock rims.

Inter Action B9.
Try googling, here in Finland you can get them from a few places.
But at 19" you can only get them with 8,5" width with right offsets and bore. At 18" you can have them in 8&9" width.
I can't say anything of the quality of the wheels, never had any or heard about them.. But they are cheap.

I just assumed they were too expensive. 1300 for set, great stuff. thx.

An entire set of LC wheels would probably cost only a little more than a single BBS wheel.

well, my next quandry is who sells them in Europe.

Pm Zoeb, I'm pretty sure he ships all over the world

Tee-Dub · 05-18-2009, 11:46 AM

Or go to Linea Corse's website, select contact, and ask them who sells them in your area. It would be very expensive to ship a set of wheels from the US to Europe.

Tallest · 05-18-2009, 04:41 PM

Yup, though Zoeb's shipping qoute is quite reasonable to what I've seen. I found a place in UK that sells so I'm just trying to figure the prices. Hyper Black Lemans is a nice looking wheel.

another good lm reps are miro (aka ALT) 279...or exclusive, i don't think they're around anymore though
