Ya, A few companies do very close replicas but the real thing only comes in 5 stud.

Closest BBS deep dish you'll get brian is the RM
M42 rightness above 6500rpm, nobody can hear you scream

i would think the schmidts would look good but you cant beat bbs and the schmidts are expensive. your toplines will vary in price, i have seen diamond cut toplines selling for over 800 easily. what are your toplines?

those wheels look stunning and much prefer them over the schmidts. a 5 stud conversion isnt that expensive either and these wheels can be pickd up for around £500+
