Howdy Folks,

So the past couple of days I have not been able to shake the mental image of gold BBS LMs on a ZHP car. Has anybody ever seen any pictures of this? I have searched everywhere.

Aside from the expensive price and the fact that it's not offered in 18x9, I would be so tempted to run just one kidney for the rest of my life in order to acquire such a wheelset.. Who knows? Maybe my thinking is all off and it might not look all that sharp?

Sorry for rambling.

I'm a fan of the gold face and polished lip.

I've been a big fan of gold wheels lately and I think they would look great on a red car. Like Marcus said, gold face with a polished lip.

I love gold BBS on red!

Gold wheels can pretty much fit any color except yellow, in my opinion

The gold rims with the polished lip would be absolutely stunning.

Wow, glad most of you guys approve of the combo...I personally like the polished 'silver' lip. I think they are stunning in any finish to be honest. Not sure if gold might get 'old'. At this point I am close to pulling the trigger on Anthracite ARC-8 wheels as soon as I can sell the OZs..

Now, I know the ARC-8 is considered a 'replica' BBS wheels, but Eddy seems to offer a great looking wheel at such a competitive weight and price.

Thanks for all the feedback. Very much digging this community...and to think I don't physically own a ZHP yet ;) Mine is somewhere in New Mexico right now.

You may not have the car in your garage, Terry, but you're the owner, brother. We're glad you bought this beauty. Many of us are looking forward to meeting you next month and seeing this thing in person.

Not a fan of LMs, but I think that the gold will work very nicely on Imola. Keep the corners amber and they'll look even better because they kind of look the same color from a distance so they'll match. Just blends well...

I'm with BP. You want something to tie in. The amber and wheels will do that.

It would look good... Plus, it's an M3/ZHP, it is sick no matter what you do.

Except street glow. lol!!
