Those look nice, I just prefer these stock lites. I also like the fact that I won't see them on a Honda with a coffee can for a muffler. These are just classy looking wheels.

Boom!

CHRISP357 · 08-20-2015, 02:46 PM

Yeah, like that!

Carrera lites are a nice choice but they are not BBS LMs and trust me you will not see these on any honda . IF you search and are patient you can find some great deals on older premium wheels .

When I want a little bling , i'll throw on my 19's

The only thing that stinks about getting a new set of wheels is having to fork out for tires. :eek

Don't know if this means real or knock off but they're 2 lbs lighter than my turbo twists. Although the difference could be tires.

Those are real!

The Borbet on the inner flange is the Boxster version and should be marked 7.5 50 at the valve stem. The ones that are marked BBS on the inner flange are 8.0 and were for the 996. Same wheels as I have. I really like them. In fact I have a wheel cut down and made into a wall clock!
