Finally found a very nice set of 18" BBS Le Mans Porsche wheels I purchased on ebay last night.
8x18 in the front and 10x18 in the rear



will try to drive to Germany on Wednesday to pick them up.

Ga je toevallig nu zondag ook naar de Kevermeeting in Hoesselt?

Just got back from picking up the wheels in Germany, they look super nice and are much lighter then I was expecting

front wheels are 8.5x18 and not 8x18 by the way

Now for the next dilemma. I started polishing the wheels but am not sure as to keep the original screws or to change them to golden ones (have seen golden ones look very good on polished wheels but never on the Le Mans wheels actually)
