No, Alcoa makes some of them and there is one other supplier but I can't remember who it was. If you do search on alcon wheels in this forum I'm sure you'll find it. Why do you ask?

I believe he was asking whether BBS makes an aftermarket wheel that will fit the BS, not whether they make the OEM wheels which were are currently made by Alcoa and were formerly made by Avus.

I have not seen or heard of any BS's with BBS wheels. The ones I have seen with aftermarket wheels are mostly HRE's.

Sorry, right you are.

Went to www.tirerack.com (tire rack sells BBS) and the only wheels that came up as available were from OZ.

thanks for the help gentlemen. I guess i will stick to the stockers, as they seem to be the lightest and strongest. Unfortunately the polished rims look a bit anemic on a white car.

for some reason Tirerack never lists BBS LMs or barely any BBS for Mercedes application.

Go to an aftermarket wheel shop, a good one, and trying searching for them. a BS on some sexy BBS LM-R would look niiiiceeee

I posted a threat "Great job Evosport" on the black series forum a little while ago. If you look for it, there are some pictures of my car with HRE M40 mono block wheels.
