As for the stamping on the wheels I have no idea, I need to look into that as I'm not very familiar with bbs wheels. As I said before these wheels were just to get ne by till my others show up, but after you posted that pic of the stamping I really need to find out. Thanks for the heads up.
Where did you buy them and what did you pay for them? That should give us a pretty good idea if they are real or not.

The cheapest I was able to find them was $3000 for the set.

If you find out they are fakes, I'll give you $450 for the set if you don't want them anymore! lol

Dude, I'd be fuming if I were you! You better get back about $800-$900 PER wheel if you paid over $1000 each for them. LM reps go for about $125-$250 per wheel depending on the manufacturer.

I sent you a PM as well.

Good luck sorting this out!

LMAO. There still 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. The metal is worth more than 100-200 per rim. They usually go for around 1200-1500 a set so 350 a wheel is more reasonable. Just because there fakes does not mean there worthless ****. Id rather throw them away the new wheels then sell them to someone for 450. Thats a low blow if Ive ever seen one. The only LM reps that go for that cheap are 15's and 16's anyway.

Well considering those are not trying to copy BBS LM your point is invalid. Its just another generic mesh wheel. May have an agreesive size similar to BBS but looks nothing like it at all. The lip is way different, the spokes go all the way to the edge of the wheel, the rivets look like ****, and the center of the wheel is different, not to mention the obvious universal pattern. No apology here. But I do see what your saying on the price per size. However the wheels Slobalt has are much better then those pieces, yet it seemed like you grouped them into the same category...

You knew they were reps so don't ACT like your suprised. And your not getting refunded back either.

Ignore troyss. He wasn't hugged enough as a child. As a result, all he does is bash in threads.
