Default ALT AT-279 bbs lm replicas

have many people seen this rim? it is an exact replica of the bbs lm, but only costs 1300 for rims and tires! they even have offsets in the +51 and +61 and +66 !!! about $200 a wheel for 18's with correct offset

i bet the wheights of the real lm and this replica are very simmualr also.

btw I have seen people put the bbs center cap on these wheels!

anyone know about the reputation of quality of alt wheels?

here is a link to a retail supplier. if any one finds them cheaper post it up.

i think you're wrong. you're looking at the (+510) (+610) (+660) thats how much more to add if u want a wider tire

I doubt that because the real LM are forged while the fakes are made in the cheaper cast method.

That's pretty damn close...

I'll keep my BBS RS-GTs, thank you.

Personally, the best knock-off wheel I've seen is Rota's knock-off of the Work Emotion. Looks exactly the same...

Sorry, I know this is an old post, but does anyone know anyone who has these, because i can't find a pic of them on a car. Also, can anyone give advice on suitable staggared tyre dimensions with 4 17"x 8 ET40 wheels.

Thanks in Advance
