i don't like BBS wheels that much. they're played out. go with the Morrs, they're sexy.

longtran · 11-07-2008, 03:25 AM

if you go with reps, get some linea corse lemans. they are the best bbs lm copies i've ever seen. i have a set for sale actually.

Raz335 · 11-07-2008, 10:25 AM

Go with BBS. They'll never be played out.

BBS fo sho..

ALPINE6SPD · 11-07-2008, 11:02 AM

I am not sure to be honest but do NOT get CSL reps. I like the Moor wheels but I like the VS7 better. I also like the regular LM's better than LM R's. You cant go wrong either way as long as you dont get CSL reps. They are nice but not as nice as the other choices.

UM you are wrong. The Moor alloys are lightweght and very strong wheels. Its no a different leage. Its a lot closer than anyone who has posted in this thread actually knows. In some aspects the MORR are better wheels. I am pretty sure they are light than LM's or LM R's and are just as strong so make sure you do research before answering a question you know nothing about. The OP may take your advice which is incorrect and then regret it.

VS8s (either rep or Morrs ) are turning into the new CSLs.

I had some CSL reps and hated cleaning them, VS8s look a little easier to clean and look just as nice.

evoi19 · 11-07-2008, 01:05 PM

I say BBS, but that's cuz i'm biased.

I've seen the Morr's and the paint quality isn't up to my standards. Peeling and chipping after very short use. That's just my opinion however and i'm sure everyone who has them will vouch for em.

Ever consider a set of volks? Trusted and proven to be a very good wheel. I've had a set of RE30's and love the design and weight savings.

Not even close there are 50 times as many people with CSL as opposed to Morr.

Raz335 · 11-07-2008, 04:02 PM

I don't know how you can compare a wheel that's been out for a couple of years (Morr) to a company with 35 years of reputation in both the street and racing scene (BBS). BBS supplies wheels for Formula 1 (Ferrari specifically), Morr....doesn't. I'm sure Morr wheels are strong, but with BBS, you're buying a name and reputation for the best engineered wheels available today. And I've heard the same issues with paint chipping on the Morr's.

ultimate · 11-07-2008, 11:04 PM

thanks for helping out guys.
i don't know about you guys but chicago roads (potholes) + snow. suuucks. i also dont have a garage but at least i live in the suburbs. will these be hard to maintain? and will all of these options fit alright with my e92 xi (with some custom work of coarse) but im talking about overall ride quality..?

aut0sh0cker · 11-08-2008, 12:09 AM

ride quality will not be affected by your wheel choice. It will be affected by the rim diameter and choice of tires though...

lol everybody has em on every kind of car there is, and they look too small.

bavarian19 · 11-08-2008, 02:06 PM

BBS by far.

You considered BBS CH's?

As far as the paint issue, however, if any of you knows anybody that has our wheels and are having chipping issues as you claim, please have them contact me directly at carlosm@morralloys.com and I`ll have their wheels recoated. We have been in business 3 years and I have never heard of a customer contacting us complaining about their wheels paint chipping.

Carlos

Good to know you're offering this. I'll let him know and I'm sure he'll be happy to hear.

Ryan@IND · 11-14-2008, 06:45 AM

I love the BBS... Classic designs. Please consider the CH as well.

I think that the Volk / Yokohama wheels are nice as well. Absolutely great quality wheels.

Morr VS8

Auto_Armour335i · 11-14-2008, 05:13 PM

BBS or Morr? Are you serious? This is one of the stupidest threads I've ever seen. BBS hands down are the best wheels. This person is F$%^ retarded. Just read his thread he can't even spell or put a sentence together correctly.
