BBS LM (Le-Mans) wheels - quality at a price

Advantages: look amazing and individual, handle the road well, ooze quality
Disadvantages: Over time the standard look will corrode easily, they are bloody expensive brand new!

BBS wheels come from Germany, America and Japan. They are a well known, well respected brand, that make good, solid, beautiful wheels for all sorts of cars. These are prestige wheels though, they are not cheap. A new set of BBS LM’s (Le-Mans) will set you back about £3,000 and that’s without tyres! The “deep dish” look is very popular in the VW modding scene and these wheels soon grew on me. They are popular, yet clearly the price is prohibitive. ...
...potential to corrode over time. BBS will swear otherwise, but I have some to prove it. As a result, my shiny new wheels were let down by their worn out, corroded bolts. You cannot buy direct replacement bolts, which can be a problem. I wont bore you with the story, but I did finally manage to acquire some, from Germany. I chose to go for gold plated bolts, that are corrosion resistant. They sit perfectly in the recess of the dish and look pretty ...

Review of BBS LM-4-Stud-10x18

"Ultraseal Puncture Prevention....oh, and repair!!

Advantages: IT WORKS ON PUNCTURES AS WELL AS PREVENTING THEM. CHEAP CONSIDERING THE COST OF HIGH GRADE TYRES.
Disadvantages: TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE THE VALVE REMOVER. NOTHING NEGATIVE

The other day I found the sneaky head of a panel pin (thin nail) sticking out of my SECOND new tyre (previous puncture!!). Not sure how long it would be or if indeed it had gone straight through, I was contemplating new tyr again. Bridgestobne 021 on zx7r....kerching!!! I was directed to a bottle of Ultraseal and told it would fix it. Quite simply, took the valve inners out witht he tool provided in the box. Air comes out FAST but squeezed the ...
...pulled the sucker out. To my HORROR it was p**sing air back out. Gutted at this I again read the paperwork and did as it said. Filled tyre up to rock hard and rodde the bike about 4 miles. On returning I found some of the gel had splattered out of the tiny hole, however, the hole was now sealed!!!! The tyre hasnt lost a single pound of air since and its been a week now. This stuff isnt JUST for preventing punctures. It works for the 'standard' ...

oz superturismo wrc 17 inch 4 stud THE BOMB !!

Advantages: great look.improved handling
Disadvantages: easy to scratch.bumpy ride.

these wheels are the BOMB!!! i no two people who have these wheels on two diffrent cars and they both look amazing.these wheels give a really good effect as your driving down the road. iv seen them on an impreza and they look really good but i think they look better on a sierra cosworth. these wheels are really delicate you cannot skim or drive up kirbs because you will scratch the wheels or at the worst you could buckle or bend the wheel.you also ...
...fades the paint and its really hard to get it off it can stain your wheels but you can always get them reconditioned for approximately thirty pound a wheel. the advantages of having these wheels is being able to fit low profile tires and increase the handling of your vehicle but fitting these wheels with low profile tires will give you a bumpy ride so i wouldnt advise you fitting these to your car if you like a smooth drive. ...

Review of Oz Superturismo WRC (17 inch) 4-stud

Oz Record Alloy Wheels

Advantages: lightweight, stylish
Disadvantages: expensive

Oz Record 16" Alloy Wheels These are aftermarket alloy wheels that you can replace your own cars steel wheels or current alloy wheels with. This may improve handling but most of all the look of your car especially if you are changing these from having wheel trims, you will get a neater look around your wheel arch with less arch gap so it will look like the wheel actually wants to be part of the car. These alloys wheels have a flat, curved, five ...
...and becoming less effective. Oz Records have a carbon fibre centre cap which is in the centre of the wheel which finished the look and design of the wheels off nicely. They also have small Oz decals written on one of those spokes. These are 5 stud wheels and can be bought in various fitments all though you might need spacers to make them fit correctly, you may also need arch work doing so they do no rub and catch on the arches of your car. I picked ...

Review of Oz Record (16 inch) 5-stud

Oz Superturismo GT

Advantages: Lots of grip, good looking, help cool brakes
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Superturismo GT After having Oz Superturismo WRC's the white version of these wheels decided it was time for a change, and decided to find a cheap set of the GT's to spray black to go with the cars current modifying theme of black and red, so searched the internet for some a cheapish set to spray black, eventually found some on a Saxo owners club for under £100 complete with tyres, bargain!! Went all the way to Portsmouth to pick these up and ...
...come in silver with the Oz decals written in the centre in black. They also come with a stylish real carbon fibre centre cap that finishes them off perfectly. The tyres that fit these are easy to get hold of and are usually 195/45/15's which all tyre manufacturers produce so there should be no trouble getting hold of the tyres of your choice for these wheels. They are brilliant for road grip and being quite wide wheels have a big surface of grip ...
