Alright guys,

New to this forum. Will get some pics of my motor up as soon as I get home from this stint offshore.

I have been looking for a set of BBS LM'S in 15's or 16's for my ek9. But can't seem to find any and i don't even know if they make they any smaller than 17's?


Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers
 
moved to tyres and wheels forum :)
 
Yea they make them in 15"s but i think there 4x100 PCD and not 5 stud but im not sure on that.
 
i was looking at some bbs wheels from an 05-07 wrx sti

they are 17x8 with a 48mm offset in a 5x114.3 bolt pattern am not sure if they will fit an ek thou but other than that i know bbs rgr 17x7.5 are the only forged bbs 1-piece wheels that i know of right now

They'll fit, since the offset is ok and the pattern is ok, but I think you'll have some issues when turning, for sure the tire will touch something down there :nono:
 
I've got a set of BBS wheels on my EK4 coupe, they are 17" and without a low profile tyre, they will rub on the inside of the wheel arch on full lock. However this is just a bit of plastic and can be removed if you don't want to go with the low profile tyres. Personally I might be getting rid of mine soon, fancy a change :)

Can't remember exactly what model they are but they look identical to this:

I have this wheels in white in my garage just after taken them of my 9.Lighter than oem wheels.
