I guess if we reversed rolls, and I had nothing positive to say about an other member's sale item I would just keep scrolling rather than to hinder the potential sale by dropping a negative comment about the wheel. If this were a thread over "hey guys what do you think about these wheels" maybe your comment would be acceptable, however on sales related threads it's probably not the nicest thing to do is all.
I'm grateful that Wheel Dynamics is a sponsor here on RL, and I'm constantly tempted by your eye candy. Even the Avatar looks good. But in fairness to helmet993, this is a discussion Forum. Perhaps a different result in the Parts Classified, but you even ask to "Bring your thoughts!"

Yes, I agree however when we mention "bring your thoughts, we are referring to bring your thoughts to customized" not to degrade these factory original BBS wheels.

For anyone on the fence, this is what they look like on my Zanzibar Red 996 C4:



The rims really look great!

Since this is supposed to be the tech forum, can anyone share where to buy replacement bolts for the wheels? And how would one paint the centers and prevent the bolt holes from being painted?

I always liked those wheels even with the tiny lip they look great IMO and not so common in 993's.

Here are two shots (locally)....just to add a example how they look.

These wheels are fixed with titanium bolts, we used to have a supplier for them, are you missing any? Let me know so we can go ahead and try to make contact again...

Thanks,

You can PM me if you would like

Factory colors fit well with your color scheme...

I believe they close a couple of years ago as owner was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident.
