BBS CH Advice

Niel333 · 14-07-2011, 06:42 PM

I need some advice please!!! I can get a set of BBS CH wheels but I have never seen them in real life before, how will I know they are genuine? And what size should they be for the CSL(the rears are 10j's) dont know what the fronts are.

The guy I can buy them from sent me these pics if it will help...

I have a set.

They look original to me.

Ask him to get a pic from the inside of the wheel.

I think they're a cracking wheel but very CSL'esque. If I had a Standard M3 and was looking at other wheels then this is a wheel I would definitely consider but not to replace OEM CSL's. Too similar I feel.

the et on them should be 35 and 20. watch out for the early ch`s the bead on the back was to thin and prone to cracking (as i found out to my expense) i now have the later ones with the thicker bead. one thing though the ch is a heavier wheel than a standard csl one.

I am glad you said that!! My problem is that the chap that had the car before me put diffirent wheels on it and sold the OEM CSL's then realised what he did and because we didnt have a lot of CSL's here he couldnt get another set.... SOOOO he put copies on it

I cant get a set of OEM's now or the BBS CH's and I was leaning towards the CH's but I think I should first get a set of CSL's first.... (While I can get them)

Now that you mention it, the guy told me that he had only ever repaired the bead of all the rims but never said why, I assumed it was scratched...

BUT I would still want a set at some stage!
