Caution!!! LM content

[Audi Juice]

I couldnt help it!!! I had to buy another set of wheels. Well I guess that isnt a bad thing, but the checking account certainly is feeling it. These LM's will not go on right away. I will disassemble them and the outer lip portions will be sent out for refinishing.

There certainly are pros and cons of running the BBS'. They are not light at all. These are authentic and still tip the scales at 25lbs. 5 pounds heavier than my OZ UL's. Such beauties though. It looks like Im really following in Toolow2.0t's footsteps now huh?


Thanks for the hookup Steven.

So you got these used and are getting them nice and fresh? You could easily sell any of the other wheels....

BTW I pm'd about the bumper...

[fusionx]

powdercoat them flat black! leave the bolts chrome though

silver ftl!

[LimiTed]

There is a time and place for black wheels. As you can see by the photos, I own a set. But taking such a beautiful work of art and striping all the detail and character out of it by going black. Now I think that is ftl

So you got these used and are getting them nice and fresh?

Yeah, they need a little tlc. If you saw what some lunatic did to all the lug hole surrounds (probably with an out of control impact gun) you would cry.

Nsmith... I just replied to your pm

Did you notice a difference in acceleration when you went from the stock wheel to the OZ's?

[Audi Juice]

Pretty much everything got better with the lighter wheel/tire combo.

Acceleration was quicker. Steering became more sensitive, and controlled. One of the biggest improvements seemed to be in ride quality. The Stasis c/o's had a harder time controlling the heavier wheels. The better soak up of uneven payment and bad roads became much more noticeable with the lighter weight combo. Just felt like the suspension had a faster recovery time.

As far as my stasis c/o's go though, I think Ive just about outgrown them. It would be nice to have something with damping/rebound adjustability in seconds, not hours.

So are you gonna change up the coils then?

[whitevdub]

^^ Do not do this. Changing those wheels would be a crime.

Can't beat a clean set of LM's. Nice pick up.

My favorite wheel for sure!

[Pworld]

That Red one made my MuthaF*****n MORNING!!!
oh im motivated to goto work now!!

Congrats on getting the LM's!! Classics

[EMAXX]

I love BBS LM rims. BBS CH's are my first choice, but LM's are a very close second. Although the new LM-R's do look really good on coupes too...

Did you buy these off a az member with a b7 avant?

[Tru NY Player]

NICE!
+1 for taking the time to refurbish them..
3rd set huh..hmm..

I NEED SOME F***ING RIMS..
SOB..

[redkid's b6]

Omg those are 3 of the sickest rims . I want your TI's

[MikeyG6767]

Nice work Casey, like to see you aren't rushing to throw them on. My style take your time do it right and get them re-done, then mount. Patient is a virture buddy ! Car detail on Saturday my house ?

[gpxluke]

another wheel whore....haha

[Audi Juice]

So are you gonna change up the coils then?

Yes! Im thinking about going with pss9's or another upper mid level coilover that has nice easy adjustability. Nothing that's going to break the bank though.

ready to sell that valence yet?

I havent forgotten about you. Im thinking a week and a half to two weeks before Im ready. Bumper is here and just need to make up my mind who is going to paint it.

Did you buy these off a az member with a b7 avant?

Yes. I first pm'd him weeks ago. Then finally decided to pick them up last night. I'm really surprised these did not sell sooner. Were you the one that was asking him about the spare?

My favorite wheel for sure!

Hey Mike, those are 18's right?



On a side note. If anyone wants a set of brand new 0 miles Toyo T1R 245 35 19 I will be putting them up for grabs in the classifieds. I just happen to have two sets of these exact tires now.

[Vorsprung]

LM's will never get old. They always look great on pretty much any car. I definately want to pick up a set sometime. Very nice collection you've started there.

HAHA

[I495 Bandit]

Beautiful wheels but LMs are kinda heavy. One way you shave some weight on these is to use titanium fasteners instead of the stainless steel ones.

[MikeyG6767]

LM's are not BBK friendly right ?

[Audi Juice]

Mikey. Im down to detail at your pad this Saturday for sure. I'll bring all the gear

[vinny.dtw]

Im really jealous, i was trying to get in contact with him to buy them...but i deleted our PM's since my box was full by accident...But at least it went to a good home.

sounds perfect man...keep me posted

[rudtf]

you'd be a great buddy to have close by with all your spare aftermarket parts.

[Alky]

I'm definitely a fan of the LM's.

[Quattro]

damn casey, must be nice! no recession for some :P
