Really want this look :-)
But does not find myself to spend $1200 for the wheels that's 21.8 lbs ($800 for the wheels and maybe $400 more to repaint the center)

I love this look too, especially on all-black MINI.

LMs would be more than twice the cost but certainly worth it if you can afford them. Just skip spending money on performance mods and get real LMs instead! =)

Just proves that style is cyclical... I had a Guards Red 944 turbo with gold BBS alloys similar to those in the pic... This was in 1987...

Uh... no. They are cheap knockoffs. $1200 doesn't even buy
two of the real McCoy. Trust me, I know.
