Man... those are some UGLY wheels. How can you drive around with wheels like that? You should send them to me. I will unselfishly drive my car with your wheels to save you any embarassment!

Deal ...... or NO Deal?

By the way... AWESOME Wheels!!!

Mine seem to be same shade, but now I'm going to double check since you mentioned it.

The cost was $2800 shipped but it was a special deal.

And the reason why it took 3 painstaking months was because BBS USA was out of this type of wheel and was waiting for a container to arrive. So my order was in with a approx. arrival date of early-mid October, container arrives, no wheels - they mistakenly didn't place them on the shipment. Then I had to wait for another container to arrive, which just arrived the week of Thanksgiving. And now they are here.

Trying to get them installed today or tomorrow, there's a shop in town here that was highly recommended to do wheel installs for custom wheels so I'm trying to arrange to get over there and get them installed.

If they came from the same batch, which is prob the case if all four were on the same container, then you'll prob be fine. Its when you get two from one paint batch and two from another you'll have issues. I work with BBS at my job and the Diamond Black is a very very hard color to match if not made from the same batch. Take them outside in the sunlight and look at them there rather than inside.

Baller man!

but yea, 2800 was cheap, I don't know much about BBS rims but I thought they were over a grand a piece? or is that for the LM's or forged editions?

Either way, nice purchase and can't wait to see pictures!!

I love seein some real, quality rims on a Lexus...
