I bought my new BBS centre caps from Tirerack-had them shipped to a friend in the US and posted to me-from what I remember well under $100 for the 4 as opposed to over $400 here in Australia

Last time I checked, it was around 40$-ish each on Tirerack, but I guess it depends on the style and type (A, B, or C).

Thanks! Its something like 8.5et50 and 9.5et55 (+3mmm spacer making rear et52). Added the spacer because with my camber it was very close to the oil line for comfort. I plan to have the camber reduced a bit one alignment time comes around. Part of me wants slightly larger lips in the back.

They are Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport 225/40/18 and 255/40/18. Same tires I originally had on my first widebody Kinesis wheels. I would really like to throw a 265 in the back, but looks like thats going to have to wait till these die down. I'm very happy with these tires however.

Looking good

Dont forget *if* you want a wider look on the rear without swapping-out tyres you can reverse mount the LMs, dropping the offset down.

I've considered it, drop around 15mm in offset right?

Here's a shot of my car from Deutsche Classic this weekend. Taken by a guy on the car lounge. There were a lot of nice Porsches there, unfortuntaely mine was the only 964.
