This set is going to be my 'street set' - which basically just means it'll be the nicer of the two. The front wheels will stay on all the time and I'll have 6 17X11 +12s to drift on.

The street set will have polished lips and I am not 100% decided on a face color yet. The black ones will keep the black face and I am going to do something fun with the lips since one set has a few little scuffs on them and I do NOT have the patience to fully polish a set of these lips.

What hardware are you using with those BBS's? Do they use standard 5/16" or M8 12-point hardware? I tried to buy some gold hardware from a BBS distributor and it was incredibly expensive when you consider that you need 40 bolts per wheel lol.

They use 12 point 7m bolts (~35mm long), which are nearly impossible to find - I know because I've looked everywhere!

Are these the bolts you speak of?
Tunershop - Wheel accessories - Rim Screws - tuning - german wheels and tires - spacers - coilovers

Car is going to be beyond awesome! Where did you source the new outer lips for the BBS's?

Yeah that's what I was looking at as well. The 12pt M7x32mm gold head. $1.60/ea x 160 bolts (40/wheel) = $250+ for bolts? Ouch. I could have some cheap ones powder coated gold for less than half of that.

I got my lips from a guy in Germany. Communication is not the greatest, but he does great work and is dead on with his timing. He told me 3-4 weeks to get the lips made and shipped out and I got them in almost exactly 3.5 weeks.

He told me he can make lips for any wheel. So if you want to give me some measurements and pictures I can see what he says.



I have 32 bolts per wheel on my 17" RSs, so that should help with cost a little bit. All of the RSs I've gotten from Japan come with the chrome BBS bolts, so I can always sell my chrome ones for a shit ton and order new ones, but I like the chrome, and would just paint them if i wanted another color.

I have been speaking with a local bolt guy and he said he can get different colored strong bolts made of the RSs, so we'll see what happens with that!

I got the lips from Racing Team Hoffman off ebay, the guy's name is Peter. He's in Germany, so there will be a time difference in his responses.


I do have some updates though....

knoop.sumospeed.com

It should be going in tonight.
