Building my BBS RS(Back from the coater!!!)

Love it! Two thumbs up!

thanks, I could not have asked for them any closer to my desired color. Dave just does an outstanding job.

awww shit....

Just finished bolting these together, tires are on the way to check clearance for the adapters(tires might rub with ET). I used Harley Davidson 2pc valve stems designed for their 1k+ tubeless wheels. Only 6.99 for SSteel, these fit perfect and only need a larger rubber washer to cover the opening better. Seals air tight and have a nice short stem. Just a FYI for anyone looking to buy some stems, don't waste your money on cheap ebay shit ;)

Cannot believe how amazing the chrome bolts and center cap make the blackish grey faces pop. all I have left to do is polish the center caps and buy tires/adapters. So after I finish this roof this week I will get my tires on the way! 225/45/16(Rear) 215/45/16(front)

The purple is very nice.

:O damn those look so good f34r....
me gusta! if they were beaded with super stretch would it show a little of the purple? that would be stellar, even tho im not into the whole stretch thang.

I would never ever run stretch, that is for kids that drive slow ;)

And thanks everyone, these would have been on about a month ago but...I bought new valved Koni inserts, UUC sway bar kit, GC E30 M3 sway links lol so yeah my suspension is finished. Time to finish the wheels and I am DONE with my car! after I swap the rebuilt m50 in this coming month. Hard with all this rain and no work(construction). Once the rain lets up I will be roofing and will have the money for the tires and adapters.

i don't understand why people paint their barrels pretty colours since you never see them once tyres are on anyway? Maybe in a certain light on a special angle but as soon as you drive a bit they'd be covered by brake dust :P!

the faces and lips etc look brilliant though :)

Did not cost anything more to do them all black or switch it up with the purple. And yes, with them mounted up and light coming in you can see the purple. I think it looks better than all the same color, don't you think?

[Ant_e30]

Oh yeah why not, if painting the barrels you might as well i suppose!
i just don't know that it really adds much except ooh lah lah before the tyres go on and the wheels go on the car and you can't see the colour anymore!

nice colour combo choice though :) keen to see them on!
