Show me your RM's
« on: 14 January 2012, 22:42 »
Ive just purchased my first set of BBS RM's. Any advice/pictures welcome.
Unsure what colour to go for? Silver?
Size of lips?
Aluminum? Stainless? Radinox?

Cheers

1" lips look perfect imo, with 195/50/15.

polished ally are a pain to keep clean, but do look nice and are lighter than stainless, radinox are just expensive. I was going to polish my ally ones and send them to image to be coated in their ceramic clear coat but never got round to it

I have 1" alu lips coming, but i may polish them up and sell them for s/s or radinox? How much does it cost for the alu lips to be sealed?

Radinox dishes can be had at the same price as a certain UK based company sell aluminium dishes.
