Nice picture Adam, i hope you didn't mind me photoshopping Becky's BBS, i did find the car after all....! LOL

Andy (formaly ajbm325ic)

Like them both but can't make me mind up to refurb BBS or buy another set of Alps, in need of some zone influence. I think i should have made the BBS smaller as they almost look like 17".

If its down to BBS Motorsport alloys or Alpina reps, its gonna be BBS Motorsports for me.

I'd go BBS Split rims tho if i had a choice...... ive got a set for sale if you are interested. :oops:

Reps or BBS? - I'd go for the BBS rims

Genuine 16x7 / 16x8 alpinas or BBS? Alpina everytime (unless RC brilliants)

Go for the Alpina's they look better and they will be easier to keep clean

but either way you spend 30 mins cleaning the wheels anyway! I've had both and can safely say Alpina's are alot easier

I'm gonna get the BBS painted up and then decide, either way they would sell on if i decided to go with the Alp reps.
Thanks all,
Andy
