Lovin this Thread!

I just picked up some Mesh Wheels not too long ago but have no idea what brand they are. Saw some similar ones posted up earlier but the Poster didn't know what they were either. And his said "Super Light" on the wheel and min say "Ultra Light" Any clues?

When I stripped them


After Paint


Anyone know what these are? I want to get some center caps

Hey guys...


BBS RM's? 2" lips? What suspension (coils, camber kit) did you use and what have you done to make them fit/ride properly?

sup guys havnt been on in a few days cause i have a problem.

my BBS RS center caps screw off BUT the damn plate that covers the lugs is stuck on, and i mean fckin stuck, we have tried multiple things and no luck, i think im gonna have to bang these things with a rubber mallet or something and risk hurting/scratching something because they need to come off before worse things happen to them w/o hub centric rings and better lugs.

anyone have any info they could help me with? my buddy thinks that the powder coating finally settled with weather changes and literally fused the 2 (mesh/plate cover), idk they were never installed on a car for more than a hour before i owned these, so they were never really tightened and had time to settle until now on my car...... any help

fml

If you don't want to run the risk of damaging them either take to the shop they were powdercoated at or a reputable wheel shop and have them correct the problem.

Yeah I should have done mine when I was painting it but I was being stubborn but oh well all good I guess. I just wanted to tuck my rim without any issues, I'm off by 1mm

Here is how the car looks on a daily, The color in this pic is the closest to real life too. So our cars look really different shades of blue
