Anyone purchase E88 wheels lately. I am having trouble getting them from my normal sources. If you could suggest some sources be helpful I prefer to deal with distributor if you have a reference to one.

I'd call Bob Woodman, they have a great relationship with bbs USA.

Good luck.

Best,

Matt

I have been working with Gert. He is having trouble getting a hold of the people at bbs motorsport Germany. I think a lot of European people going to vacation for the month of July and August maybe that accounts for the problem.

David is most probably the person with whom I will deal for many reasons, with customer service at the top of lists.

He was great to work with. I'll be using his services for a bunch of other upcoming projects for my 964

Will stock aluminum nuts be used on the E88 wheels without need to change to longer studs?

Email Golan or Sam at Auto Talent, they are a sponsor here. Golan just hooked me up with a set. Their prices are very competitive as well.
