We had these wheels at the shop since September 2013 and did a lot of testing/fitment for BBS to make sure it will clear different BBK setups.

Center pieces come in raw finish and can be finished in any color/finish per customers request. We will post more info and pictures later this week.

Aleks.
Looking forward to this.

Just checked them out this morning. They look better in person than in the pics. Only thing I'm iffy on is the area around each bolt. Not really feeling the raised valley and peak look

Weekday traffic down to his shop is a biatch!

lemme help: 2 spare sets

I learned that pirelli manufactures these tire sizes a couple times a year. Not wanting to be in a scenario where I needed new tires and they were on backorder, I ordered 2 sets. My current tires will need to be changed soon, which is why I ordered 2 sets. Basically, I have 1 spare set.
