This optional OE wheel application is using the same design as the Forged Magnesium racing monobloc wheels, while using a more cost effective flow-formed cast (BBS trade name spun-cast) aluminum process.

That's why the wheel upgrade cost is so low...
1,180EU = ~$1675USD so anyone know where we can get a set?

Cheers
