One-off BBS Racing Wheels

Very nice. Are these forged LM from BBS? What are the offsets?

 

Very nice. Although I think there is a little too much going on around the outer edge of the rim. Maybe lower it a bit?

 

whoah, some rare wheels.

if you don't mind me asking, how much were they? 8k? 10k?

 

Very nice wheels.

We are a BBS Motorsports distributor and have done these on a 360 for a customer a few years ago.

Great wheels!

Congrats!

 

Very, very nice. For my personnal taste I would paint the center wheels in the same black of your car and lower it. And this would be a very hot 430!

 

for some reason the Lip area makes the rims look like 16" wheels? Maybe I need to see them in person..pic not doing them justice.

What size are the tires? the rear profile looks too tall. 40 series?

 

I'm with you ... the design seems to detract from the appearance you'd expect from the size of the wheel. I think it has to do with the way the lip design carries over to the outer edge of the center portion of the wheel thus decreasing the size of the center portion of the wheel making it look smaller.

 

Tipo ,,Agreed.

The wheel center is a 17" center with a step lip design. This is why the center looks so small.For racing applications this works because we are after the strongest possible wheel with the least amount of weight. Small center=less weight.

For street cars today most customers want that big center like you find on a HRE or other 3 piece wheel.

There is no doubt about it these are great wheels, we run them on our Speed GT World Challenge cars and have several Porsche customers that use them for track wheels.


Hope that helps shed somelight on the topic.

 

You're right. The tyre size mentioned was 345/30/19, therefore it's a 345mm wide with aspect ratio of 30%. Hence it's the same (+/- manufacturer's tolerance) sidewall height as a correspondingly sized 295/35/19 tyre which is 295mm, aspect ratio of 35%. Sidewall height is tyre width times AR, divided by two.

Then again, the 'gumballish' nature of the extra-wide tyres makes for a certain 'Optical Illusion' of higher profile, exarcebated by the design of the stepped lips of them gobsmacking BBS one offs... Beautiful car and the new wheels compliment it nicely. BBS & Ferrari, 'nuff said..

 

love BBS wheels! do you have any pictures of the car lowered on those rims? also, any info or pics of the one piece BBS wheels you spoke of that were scheduled for production a while back??
thank you.

 

Great wheels, they look really nice.

 

Any idea if they will fit over the rotors on a scud?

 

Sorry not feeling it, but as long as you like it all that matters.

 

Love it to death, machine looks so purposeful now! Can't wait to see new pics with it dropped.
