I can't argue with you wanting a "certain look" for your lights, that's your prerogative.

I just have a hard time swallowing the fact that you are so complacent with the loss is performance.

When your night driving/eye fatigue gets bad, you'll know why.

I have 6000k Philip ultinon bulbs in my stock hid headlight and hid foglight.
There should be little output loss, but I certainly don't feel any and I certainly don't blind the on coming trafic.

complacent? NO. proud? YES.

Until you own a sc430, don't come here to brag your e30 lenses on your suv because nobody cares.

This thresd is about BBS LM on SC430.

When did I say I own eSC430 projectors? When did I say I own an SUV with a eSC430 retro?

Im sorry if I hit a sore spot with you little guy, but no harm intended. I'm simply posting factual information lighting/output info.

This thread IS ABOUT SC430's on LM's, and I was simply posting in response to one aspect of one of the SC430's with LM's mods. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm not going to be responsible for getting this thread locked with immature answers, it will be you.

It is indeed an 06+ conversion. It is also an US SC430 that is selling in Japan.





Anyone know if they are 19" or 20" rims??

What do you think of these reps that is on ebay.

I can get the offset very close to the black SC430 with the BBS LMs.

Anyone know where I can order BBS LM wheels for my 2006 in the US? Everywhere I try I get "not available for this vehicle". Sizes and offsets would be great as well. Thanks ahead of time.

I don't think you need to pay for those BBS LMs. Just get a set of Vors 19' VR8s for $250each - just as good.
20s are too big (to my eye).
Tires are 255/40-19 all around. 6% diameter increase, 1.5 inches.

But those BBSs, nevertheless, do look great!
