They look amazing, although I am a bit biased because I used to have a set on my GTi Edition 30

Pain in the A to clean, well I thought so until I had MV2's on the Z4 Coupe and now MV4's

So are you running spacers at the mo? If not you're going to have some difficulty resolving the rubbing issues as there's very little lip on the arches to roll...

Lovely looking wheel and in a couloir that really works. Superb end result, BBS CH's are as you can see a personal favourite of mine having had a genuine set for 5 or so years.



And yep they are a pain to clean so well worth when fresh'n'new thoroughly cleaning and sealing with a decent sea lent which makes life a lot easier in the future to keep on top of

I don't use any products anymore for cleaning wheels after my old z4 wheels corroded around the wheel nuts.

I just use a bucket of warm water and a microfiber. Then seal the wheels afterwards and then they are nice and easy to clean next time

Hi Mark,

Car is looking great

As per messages there is no way the wheels should be rubbing on the back with an et38 bud. You can run as low as et30 (As a lot of members are running on here on our previous 359 style wheels) with a 265/30/19 on a pre LCI coupe and not have any issues. As I said, have a check to see if any of your inner plastic arch guards have came lose an dropped down a little. Can be the only thing I can think of.

Have a check and let me know

Chris.
