Default Eddie: Any info on the new forged anthracite BBS wheel coming out?

I saw one last weekend at the ALMS race and it was BEAUTIFUL. Not to mention light. The rep thought they would be around $600 a wheel, depending on application. Do you have any info on these yet?

Thanks in advance.

Default Yeah, I think that is the wheel, only the one I saw was in the Diamond Black

coloring. The rep said they should be available in the US by the end of June. I'll definitely be giving them a look.

Default I think I saw the RG-R like Andy posted below, only with the DBK

finish. If the BBS rep is to be believed, we won't have to order them from over there, as they are going to be available here in a few weeks. Keep your eyes peeled.

Those 2-p CH's are really cool. And the offset is 38, which is also a bonus. My ET35 CHs stick out further than I'd prefer.

Thanks for the website, BTW.
