Doubt it, but they should. More of a bimmer wheel but still would look great.

This might not be exactly what you are looking for but I think they are similar (but black) and in your color car.

Real LM's, or even Varrstoen's, would look really good on a coupe. I've always wanted to do it, but I can never justify spending the difference on a brand new set of real LM's, and I don't really want Varrstoen's just 'cause I'm a little bit of a badge *****. I'm also a little bit worried about tracking w/ Varrstoen's. Granted, every wheel company has its horror stories, but something about it just put me off.

Not to start another knock-off vs. original debate, but an original will never be worse off than a knock-off.

it's okay. to make you feel better, BBS LM are not that common on BMWs either because of cost. More Porsche folks are willing to fork out the money than BMW or Infiniti guys IMO. I would love a set but I don't have that kind of money. As for the knock offs, up close most I have seen look really fake and nasty. due to the spoke designs and multi-piece look, the fakes either fake the bolts so they look like little nipples or they imitate the 3 piece design and make the wheels super heavy.

working at ModBargains we work on mostly BMW's and BBS's are very common. 2 of my co workers even have BBS LM's.

My other home is bimmerforums.com and there are so many BBS wheels flying around (LM included). People will easily spend $2500 for a set of nicely finished wheels. There are bimmers that run WORK and a few (very rare) WedsSport wheels as well, which are mostly for the Japanese market. As long as the bolt pattern and offset are right, any wheel is fair game

As much as i love the BBS LM's there are just wayyyyyy to many copies out in the world now.. so if i actually up'd for the real ones.. everyone will still think im rolling reps with bbs center caps unless they got up closer to the wheel..
