Title: What size lips for my BBS RMs?
Post by: HuwMk2 on 30 September 2010, 20:59

Hi. I am about to get my BBS RMs split for a refurb. They currently have the 0.5" lips. I would like to make them wider to sit under my G60 arches nicely. However, I would prefer not to get my arches rolled. Can someone please let me know what would fit nicely under my arches. I was thinking 1.5" lips all round. What do you think???

which will make them 7.5.

You may need to roll the back lips slightly depending on how low your ride height is.

I had 7'' RMs on mine with a 10mm spacer on the back at one point. No rubbing ussues but was quite close IIRC. The car was not too low but if you do wish to lower then i would think you need them back rolled.

Offer up the wheel and measure. 195.45 tyres will be needed

Yes, 7.5" is what I was hoping. Car is lowered 40mm all round on Weitec GT kit.
