ONE-OFF BBS LM'S l CONTINENTAL TIRES
-Mounted a set of Continental ContiSportContact 3 tires on my BBS LM's. I daily drive my car and the Continental's have definitely provided supreme dry traction/wet traction/comfort/quietness/tread life/grip.
-The BBS LM’s have reverse mount faces, widened rears and polished step-lips.
BBS LM SPECS:
F: 19x8.5 +47
R: 19x12 +20
Thanks:
-Continental Tire
-Ralph Wright (Rawheels@att.blackberry.net) for taking on the BBS LM build
Check it..Thanks!

I love LMs so thank you for sharing.
3 questions:
1) What is the tire size as it looks very stretched in the rear
2) What is the rear offset as it looks like it's extremely aggressive fitment
3) How/where might I ask did the wheel vendor source the rivet bolts? Rim part? And are they OEM BBS?

I think those are the only wheels ever made that make everycar look like a race car.

very clean looking car - 
not a big fan of the way those back wheels look... maybe its the pics since the tire is invisible - I would like to see a daytime pic and/or close up of the rear overhang....sorry I think its a little low too
still beautiful car

I have the same Conti tires, Tread life and grip is not all that impressive and all in all it's a pretty mediocre tire.
Nice looking car!

1. 295/30/19
2. The rear wheel specs are 19x12 +20
3. The wheels are using the BBS rivets that came with the LM's and are widened with aftermarket step-lip barrels
What is up my brother
I sold the 19x8.5/11 LM's I had and picked up another set to get built..Hope all is great with you and the family!
