Show us yer 16 and 17 inch wheels!

[was8v 0]

Going to be joining the BBS LM replica group buy, but I dunno which to go for 16 or 17 inch!

 

I don't want to ruin the ride and I don't want rubbing arches.

 

Anychance people can post pics of their C's with the size of the wheels (offset and width) also what size tyres they run?

 

Cheers!

I had 17" on my old old Rado. 16" rim with a higher profile will give you more comfort.

 

I had 7.5J x17, and fitted 205/40 R17 rubber. Considering my Rado had been lowered (as much as possible on the front), and i never had any problems with the tyres rubbing the arches, handling was awesome.

 

But if you like, let me know the rim measurements of any rims you go for, and i'll check what the best tyre size would be for you.

I'd go 17...BBS never made a 16in LM. You're making it too easy to tell. :lol:

 

Some fender rolling might be in order too.
