Where can I find BBS LM replicas for Porsche?
Hi,
I am looking for a set of LeMans replicas for my 993, but so far I haven't been lucky. It seems to be a lot of replicas for other marques, but nothing that will fit the 5x130 bolt pattern...?
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Oystein W.

Hi!
I can't help you if you want replicas.
The replicas can be very weak in terms of strength, as can most replicas of any wheel. I personally wouldn't want replicas, for strength reasons.
If you are set on that wheel, I would look for real ones. A few people have them on a 964 or 993.
You can also find similar styles made by CCW, Fikse, HRE, and many others. Also consider the Porsche Sport Classic II wheel.
Try posting in the 993 forum as well.
Take care!

I have had some really nice LM replicas on a BMW Z3 Coupé; they were quite cheap, looked stunning (in my opinion) and seemed pretty solid/well-built (a bit heavy though). See attached photos of my good, old bimmer with the replicas below.

I'm jumping in on this thread cause I have had several sets of LM reps on several cars and never had a problem. I'd love some 19" LM reps in 8.5 and 10 or 11"... Lovely on 993's
