Wheel Help!!!
I really want a set of BBS LM wheels for my F20 but I can only afford reps, do you think these will be any good? I think they will look great against my grey one series but I don’t know about the quality of them, can anyone tell me or recommend a good company for LM reps ?

These won't fit, ET's are too low. ET40 would be ideal for 8" front and 9" rear.
Can't help you with the wheels though. I'd stay away from reps anyday. |

I'd avoid reps and your insurance company would probably load your premium as well.

OP - I have oem style 397 [18" dia 8" wide and et 34mm] all round on my F20 with oem size Mich PSS. Front and rear OK on mine with H&R sport springs fitted but would not go any lower numerically on et or higher on the width as they are flush. You could push outer rim faces further out if riding on stock suspension.
Once the rain stops, I will take some photos so you can see. PD

The inward suspension travel is the same with stock suspension as on a lowered car. Even if you have more margin with the car at rest, the springs and shocks are softer, so it can still bottom out in bumps or quick load transfers. |
