    Where to buy BBS LM replicas...?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm after a set of 19x8.5 BBS LM reps... I found a set ET45 but I am not too sure if I can run that without rubbing. I'd also like to buy from Canada, if possible. Anybody know of a place that sells them?

    Well, IT doesn't have them... If you could name any one of the tonnes of stores, that'd be appreciated. :)

    Check the Canadian classifieds. ShyGuy is selling his reps. He is located in Vancouver tho. I inquired about them but I'm leaning towards B7 Rs4s.

    Here are the specs he told me. 5x112 ET35 Tires are 95% new Kuhmo Ecsta SPT 245/35/19 Summer Tires. Shoot him a PM.

    BB5 LM Reps - be prepared to endlessly answer the only question people will ask when they see them

    Real BBS, Hartmann Reps, Ronal, HRE are for the most part all we carry.

    I have a client selling a set of 18" BBS CH, and another a set of 18" BBS RE...

    There's gonna be a ton of stuff showing up in the classifieds soon. Just sit back and wait. Spring is around the corner and guys get antsy to unload 'last years' look...

    Haha I'm sure a lot of women live with this same issue... When you've got something that looks spectacular, ya know?

    But yeah, I'd love to get real ones... but they are nowhere near my budget. I sold my Work VS-XX's last year, and I don't see myself owning high-end wheels again for quite some time.

    Thanks for all the help so far guys! I'll follow up with all these 'leads'! :)

    I don't see 'em on SPP's website... How did they ship? Nothing to pay at the door? That's crazy... must have declared the value at like 15 bucks.

    Crazy... I thought with UPS 50 dollar packages would still be subject to duty... not as much, but like 6-7 bucks a package plus any COD fees and taxes.

    You got lucky, I think!

    As far as I know, anything over $20 is subject to duty regardless of the shipping method. However, lots of times with USPS/CP it's hit and miss - sometimes you get charged, sometimes you don't.

    Oooh SPP will ship USPS!? That makes a world of difference. They don't charge brokerage fees ever... It's all gov't if you ship USPS, so you can just pay directly to them. That's great to know that a big seller like SPP uses USPS... I wish everybody would.

    As long there's a tracking number and insurance with USPS, then your ok.

    I'm looking for those time attacks in 19" that were on sale here before the lawsuit. It seems they've become somewhat scarce now.
