    BBS LM repicas, or real ones

    I am having some difficulty finding BBS LM's either real or replicas. I can find a lot in 5x120 or 112 for the euro guys but nothing for us. Any help would be appreciated. I would like 18x8 (offsets can vary)

    Also do you guys like the time attack style? I know these are reps but I love how they look!

    2 grand is cheap? I must be in the wrong business.

    compared to new BBS LM's that is cheap. and yeah, you just might be in the wrong business, that's for you to decide.

    When someone is shopping for BBS wheels or Volks or something like that, that tells me the person has great taste and good amount of money to spend. 1900 for a set of nice BBS that are hard to find is relatively cheap. 2000 is not cheap but when you want quality, you must pay for it.

    it has nothing to do with my situation. the OP asked about BBS LM's. i posted a set that was used and cheap (compared to new BBS LM's) for a little more than new replicas. real > replica, and if the cost is almost the same, why not buy real?

    BBS LM's are cream of the crop, so dont expect to find genuine ones for less that 2k. unless theyre stolen. 2k is actually a bargain. dont do the time attack also. its getting played out by everyone doing it with cheap wheels.
