Check this pic out.

What a looker...a little too low for my cup of tea but the wheels are striking. Does anyone know what wheels they are? They look like BBS but I'm not sure. I've been to the BBS website but haven't been able to find the model. I've also tried emailing recetep but haven't got a reply.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah, that is sweet. Yes, they do look like a BBS wheel, but there are quite a few that look very similar. I have seen some like this before but I can't remember what brand they are. They look like 15's or 16's. That may be why the car looks like it sits a little low. Sit's pretty good if you ask me.


For those of you who are curious....

The rims are actually 15" American Racing rims. Four

corner Coil-Over with shortened struts and Bilstein Strut Inserts

Apparently these rims are not made anymore. Has anyone got any ideas on a good place to start finding some???

Cheers

I won't be easy if they don't make them any more. Did you check out their web-site? It's www.americanracing.com Click on passenger car wheels and it is on the second page.

They have one called the Vortex that look quite a bit like these except they don't have as many spokes. And the Vortex are available in 4x4.50 lug pattern in 14x6 or 15x7's for $100 dollars or less manufacturers list price! Not too bad!

BTW, didn't I say the BBS wheels would be expensive?????:finger:
