i'm a fan of both but your te37's flow much better than the lm's would, its been said before for a reason.

interesting to read the flat-out responses in this thread.
voted TE's they fit the stance and color of your car better.

surprising, because I really do like bbs wheels (came this close -->"<-- to getting a set for a previous car)

TE's get my vote. Makes your car look way tougher.

Love the TE37s, but I have to vote for the new option 3.) TTs with 600hp and keep it FTW!

If you're going to go BBS LM, then definitely research how and what sizing will give you the MAXIMUM lippage even in the front- sort of like camberSC's older setup possibly. If they don't have nice lips, then I say just stick with the nice TE's. Possibly get them painted Diamond gloss black? heh

Btw, here's a reference photo- I am pretty sure these are BBS LM's:

The te37s look far better imo!! Definitely a more sporty looking wheel.

The BBSs are way too busy for as sleek and clean as your car is.

Although if for some reason you do decide to go with the BBSs though I might want your old ones....

Why fix it if it isn't broke?

Keep the TE-37's and get a set of BBS' as spare wheels. You can have the best of both worlds.

What color would the BBS' be if you did get them?
