I finally got back on the m|u after I saw the decals I had gotten a long *** time ago and decided to finally put them on my car. Saw his thread so I posted on there.

Yeah, I got wheels everywhere...

The new ones were mounted today, the S-lites went back to storage, and the ones pictured above are sitting in my bedroom.

only bright silver and diamond black. in 5x100, they offered gold with polished lip or full gold, but those are old. you can always get them custom painted like gnatster did

I'd never seen this thread before and they've been shown before, twice. But here's the SB LMs that now reside on my car.

I've always loved this thread and I'm so excited that I'm a part of the BBS club. I just recently picked up some discontinued BBS RY-II's. I wanted to swap out the tires of my old wheels on to these for immediate installation, but they were stolen. SO, I have to wait and make some extra cash before they go on. But in the meantime, here's a bit of a teaser:

It was just by luck. Found an old thread from a guy on vwvortex who was looking to sell the wheels. There was no information given whatsoever. I assumed that they were sold. I sent him a message, he still had them, we worked out a deal.
