I had the option to gunmetal but I already have two other cars with black wheels so I went to the classic silver. I can always powdercoat them down the road...

How about some white lettered Bridgestones just the like the Indy cars

damn, Vic! the car looks great!

I'm kinda digging the white lettering, but it seems very Nascar-ish to me.

Frank you know you cant custom make the offsets at BBS - its their specific GT-R fitment but you are right there is room left in the well. Right now the spoke is literally 2mm from the caliper which I like. But the well gap is too much but a hubcentric spacer will work. This will be done soon.

Love the GT-R, and love LM's on most cars - not sure what it is, I'm not 100% on this combo...?

Auktane's P-shop with the car lowered further and with the wheels in gold looks incredible, though... maybe it's the silver on white.

Either way, it's a phenomenal car - glad to hear you enjoy it as much as you do!

the LM runs on the PFS, so you can always get bigger spacers

E 63S Wagon Renntech, E55 Renntech, SL65, SL 55 030, ML, bunch of old ones--they come, they go...
Beauty. The LM is...

still the most beautiful wheel ever offered. (Two German tuner magazines have also voted it that way). It looked good on all your other cars as well.
Gold? No.
RWL? Please, no.
You don't need to audition for the next F and F movie.
This is one I'd have to say to stop, right there.
