Counterfit BBS warning.......

[Ed30DSG]

I think Philip from PW Motorsport has seen enough BBS wheels in his time to spot fake ones!

a set of these finished last night for £505 i was so close to buying them but left it in the end as i haven't got a car to put them on yet! How can you tell the fake from the genuine for future reference? Cheers Sam

The price is generally a good indication, is the seller on the www.bbs.com site?

The detailing on the wheel is very different to the genuine BBS.
1. The Genuine CH does not have this fitting badge
2. The markings on the rear of the wheel are incorrect
3. The center bore and spigot ring fittment is different
4. The finish on the wheel is poor, casting flaws etc

I've emailed the seller asking if I can go and take a look at them so I can check the authenticity etc before I bid.

We'll see what he replies with
