yea ive seen those before, the red one was all over hellaflush its such an aggressive setup up that needs a lot of work to make. we’ll see what happens. if i end up deciding to spend more than $2.5k i will 100% get ccw’s. the set below is what i think im going to have made. by the same person, same exact specs, just need to pick a color for the centers…

BMW Styling 5 BBS RC 035 and 038  
17x8,0 ET20 up front  
17x9,0 ET20 for the rear  
Filled and redrilled to 4x100  
Center reduced to 57,1  
Machined to clear E30 325 brakes.  
Fully colour striped  
Repainted in Graphite silver metalic  
Polished lips  
Nickel plated bolts  
NEW Original BBS logos  
NEW aluminium valves
