Baby has a new set of shoes

Just got my BBS rims and a new set of shoes on my 85GSL. 1 rim had to be repaired and a friend who owns a tire shop is letting me test Kumhos. Had to dumb down the pic to fit, so quality is sorta sucky..

Thanks. I've got a RB dual exhaust, Weber 45 and Maria ITS legal dam ready to go. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll have it in. I really want to test the tires but I have to wait until this damn Monsoon Season in the Mid- Atlantic ends! P.S.- this site is awesome.. I wish it was around 10 years ago when I had my first 81 RX!

$45 a piece for the rims but one had to be repaired-the guy I bought them from tried to 'make one of them fit' on his VW GTI..Cost about $75 to repair that damage. The tires work out to $50 a piece (Kumhos)..

The rims are 15x7 and the wheels are 205/ 55 / 15.
BBS made several style rims for 4 x 110mm when the 1st gens were still rolling out of production and continued several years later..

$45 a piece for the rims but one had to be repaired-the guy I bought them from tried to 'make one of them fit' on his VW GTI..Cost about $75 to repair that damage.
