Bummer about the Forgelines

Given all the discussion about going with Motorsports wheels... one thing to consider/realize is that if you drive hard and frequently on any wheel (hopefully a forged wheel), you still need to have them checked frequently and you should have them rebuilt or replaced on a regular basis.

The reason I mention this, is because I've witnessed too many friends going the "motorsports" route and not realizing that maintenance and replacement are part of the "motorsports" route.

Well I can't seem to get ahold of anyone at BBS or a quote or estimated time of delivery. Unless there is another channel to go through here I'm stumped. How do these guys take on new customers I wonder? Anyway....

Cargraphic was very very responsive with the proper ET's as well as pricing and estimated arrival times. Total price would be about $4050 which decently cheaper than the BBS's. I'm still waiting on BBS but need to pull the trigger soon as my next track event in June is coming up quickly

Are these the wheels you have Jean? http://www.cargraphic.com/index.php?...9,768/&start=3
Has anyone had experience with this? I am looking to go to R6 - didn't want to go from MPCS 265's (f) to 235's R6.

I run 245/40's on my 9 inch fronts now without any issues.
