Who sells BBS RK Rims?
Who, besides TIRE RACK, sell BBS RK rims to fit 3rd GEN 7's?

IM looking for some one piece 17" rims, 8 or 8 1/2 wide.

I PM'ed Rishie, but he must be busy or didn't receive it.

We sell BBS. I did the research and my BBS rep will call me on Monday. I'm so sorry. I got your inquiry sitting right here.

I'll take care of it. You'll end up running a 17,8 +42 all the way around. They do not make any other fitment.

Hope that helps a little. Low Price guarantee, so we'll beat the rack for you.

i personally like the BBS RC and LM. however, for some reason, i just dont think BBS rims look good/belong on a Japanese car. BBS makes a certain style of wheels that i think only looks good on European cars.

just my .02

LM:

Let's stick to the question!!!!!
I don't think I was asking for opinions on what rims you like. Or don't like!!!

I was asking where I can buy them.

Rishie can you hook me up with some S03's for the rims?

I sure can hook you up with S-03's. do you want those or Toyo T1s, since tire rack doesn't have those I figure I can give you some other options.

Rishie

I got pricing, let's just figure out tires so I can work on the bottom line figure.

I'm assuming you want to run a 235/45/17 on these all around. At least that's what I would reccommend.

IM contemplating 245/40-17.

IM also not too keen on Toyo Tires.
I'll stick with the S-03's

Thanks for your price quote, you should be hearing from me soon

Yeah I really like the LM's. What I'd really like to see is the Type RZ rims, since they're BBS 17". Where would I go to get those kind of BBS rims powdercoated? (they look a lot like the RX II's)

I have chrome BBS RX's on my FD and I got them from Sander Performance Group, out of NJ. Best price I could find, and no shipping. If you are interested, I know they carry the RK rim, so talk to Lucille at 800-227-6965, www.lusso.com

Unfortunately BBS does not produce a staggered fitment in the RK for our offsets, the FD or FC.

Sorry, Rishie

Congrats on the ride. Looks awesome and you have confidence in the fact that you got the lightest one piece BBS wheel for the US market.

The BBS LM are the best looking rims I have seen yet , I dont like the open spoke look or the single nut in the middle of the rim.

BBS LM's are sweet. But for that price your market is open to a lot of sweet *** wheels.
