Post No BBS fitments for Porsche

I went to the <a href="http://www.bbs-ag.com/english/index.html" target="_blank">BBS</a> site and tried to find their offerings for my 968. To my surprise, they don't offer anything for my car (or other Porsches) other than the LM style in 18x8 and 18x9.5. They retail for $770.00 front and $860.00 rear. Out of my target price range.

It seems that they offer everything for BMW, Audi, Mercedes, VW, Ford, Rover, Opel, Saab, Seat, all the Japanese cars....do I need to go on?

It seem to me that Porsche owners would be a HUGE market for them. Why are they neglecting us?

Those BBS LM's are a bit less expensive at the tire rack website at <a href="http://www.tirerack.com." target="_blank">www.tirerack.com.</a> Under wheels, under 968, they show BBS LM's 18x8's at $719 (front) and 18x9.5's for $779 (rear). One reason you may not see alot of 968-unique choices is that not alot of 968's were sold, as compared to Honda's, etc. For street usage, some people like the Mille Miglia wheels, which are $250-$400 each, in different styles.
