preview:18" BBS Le Mans on a standard bug
 

Couldn't find my old thread so here's a pic of my 18" BBS Le Mans wheels on my 72 bug.
specs are
front: 18x8.5 with 225/35/18 tyres, ET 56 31mm spacers and 4cm wider fenders

rear: 18x10 with 265/35/18 tyres, ET 50 35mm spacers and 7cm wider fenders

Polished the wheels myself and in between the spokes I've painted them black metallic.

hott sh@t
 

thoughs look ridiculous.. in a good wayy:agree:

Verry, verry nice!!!!

Great looks, just an little bit lower and it rocks!

Wiebrand:D

Hi

Looks great. What size tyres are you using?

Steve

front:225/35/18
rear:265/35/18

Very nice look. The wheels are classic, IMHO the best BBS out there.

hehe, great minds think alike... just kidding :)

These wheels cost a pretty penny but they were my absolute favorite wheels for this car, sportive, classic and light weight.

Looks very well Tom!
I did almost the same thing, but used smaller width ones: 7,5Jx18 front and 9Jx18 rear. Tires are also 225/35 :D

Nice setup there Wally, have admired your photo a few times already :)
What type are yours, are they original GT3 rims?

I bought mine used from a German (was about a 300km drive there and back but a big price difference, these cost an arm and a leg over here), he had them on his Porsche GT3 circuit racer but was selling everything.

Thanks Tom; no, not GT3; these are called Sport-ClassicII and in these smaller widths (..) were an option on Boxsters only. Bl**dy difficult to find I found out, but finally located these in germany as well :)
Former owner did the paint job of the center and the polishing of the outer rims.

Car still has no motor or box in it tho :(

just LOVE LM's. i so wanted to throw a set on my wife's Passat, but couldn't bring myself to spend the $. looks great on your car.:agree:

18"
 

Looks good!!!

some good news, spacers should arrive the coming week so it'll be time to swap chassis and put the Le Mans wheels on
