BBS SR Wheels -- Have you guys seen them yet?

Have you guys seen the new BBS SR wheels? They look like fatter 507 style wheels. I just ordered a set for my winters from Tire Rack.

Any pictures?

Edit: just googled it and yes they look pretty similar. Which offset did you go for?

They have it in a 45 offset, with 8" wide, should be perfect. They just added this wheel to the lineup and it is pretty cheap ($265 per) -- with the $51 discount per Blizzak tire and a $50 giftcard, it was a tough deal to pass up. I really wanted to keep an OEM setup, but I think this will look pretty good for my winter setup. I took my Cayman skiing throughout the northeast all winter long, I plan on doing the same with my C63 -- with the addition of a baby seat now...

Those look awesome! Some wider widths and more aggressive offsets would make those wheels something I would actually buy! They aren't forged but I trust a big company like BBS.

Looking good!
Do the spokes stick out at any point, or are the wheels flat/concave all the way? Hard to tell from any pictures.
Thinking of these with ET35 offset for my W212 wagon winter setup.

Kind of a fat version of the BBS FI's which are probably the best you can buy.

Not a bad looking wheel, in a 19 or 20 inch application.

The BBSs look great. Have you done anything with your springs? Your car almost looks raised from stock. (Or am I getting accustom to everybody lowering their rides?)

Lol, they are 225/40-18's all around. No mods to the car. The wheels are slightly concave -- they show better in person. I was just happy to find something for the winters that looked good and were not too expensive. I was looking initially for a used set of OEM rims, but I couldn't find a set that was cheaper than these.

Ok, thx - hard to tell from any pics on the web.


Just bought a new setup of Rondell 0049 (18x8, ET35, 245/40/18) as a "Plan B"-solution, anđ ended up disappointed as the wheels are slightly convex and the spokes poke out a bit.


Going for a swap...
