Have you found a contact for the lips I think these a guy on clubroadster that can get them?
Also how wide are you going to make them? and how much dish?

These are not the factory Mazda BBS wheels they are a 3 piece wheel
they were available on E30 BMW M3s and some VWs and various other cars.
I have contacted most places in NZ re outer lips and the only one who said they would be able to do them was Bateman Race Cars in wellington.
but that will be more expensive than the German ones

I actually quite like the whole fluro look that's coming into car fashion at the moment. But the classics are good too.
there are no other colours that go with red

I bought some 3 piece wheels for the race car ages ago. These were a copy of the Haliday Racing wheel but with thicker aluminium used for the inners and outers. I know the business was sold but will make inquiries as to whether they are still going.sprsta wrote:These are not the factory Mazda BBS wheels they are a 3 piece wheel

The other thing is that I know of a good metal spinner who could make some up for you, I would just have to check if he is set up again (From Christchurch).
