Default Rims

I've been looking into getting some rims and came across these Used 19" BBS LM Wheels on High Performance Tires! what do you guys think of them? How much would I be able to lower it if I got them? To be honest I don't know what I'm doing at all when it comes to wheels, and suspension.

my question to you is are those authentic? for the price i would say they are replicas. but i would suggest if they are replicas to find out where they are from as not all replica wheels are the same and some have been known to bend or crack esp it being 19 inch wheels.

I would assume they're replicas because bbs rims are usually that much for each rim, if not more. I'll have to call them and ask, because even though they're used, and only for display, 895 does seem pretty cheap, especially since that price includes installation balancing and alignment.

You should also consider looking at esmwheels.com, they have a really great looking lm replica which I bought for my a4 four months ago. I've got 19" on mine.

You can get a new 19" staggered set for about $800
