I can't be alone in checking out the Lenso "BBS" replica alloys that appear in ads in every Total BMW and similar

They seem good value and look the part - but are they the correct offset?

Looks like they are for an E30

So- please provide us with your experiences/thoughts please- do they fit? are they appreciably heavier, poorly made?

Nb Moderator I see I am now an E21 potential fanatic not a NewBEE - this is certainly a new bEE question!

lol - here is a conversation between two volkswagen owners - and they mention the fake bbs your on about getting.

lol, saw that ages ago, makes me laugh now as it did then!

i bet they will be heavy, kinda like an alpina copy is twice the weight of an original.....

"i also am on 13's and im on H&r ultra ultra ultra ultra ultra lows" LOL pretty much sums up the low car fans in that retro rides thread.

"m k 4s are gay!"

These wheels were on my car when I bought it, in 16". It was a staggered set with (not sure) 7.5j on the front and 9j at the back.
Main reason I got rid of them was becouse of the low tyres and the spacers. I just wasn't comfortable with them.
Swapped them for Alpina replica's in 15", makes the ride so much better.

So they won't fit without spacers. Theye are pretty well made, with a good overall look (don't look cheap). Are a bit on the heavy side, but nothing extreme.
The paintwork (I heard) isn't very long lasting, but as long as you keep it away from salt and keep them clean you should be fine.

Duke - any pics of them on your car?
