Hey I know there are lots of cars running BBS LM Rep's and can find lots of pics....but i cant seem to find any pics of anyone with BBS CH Reps??

Im not starting this tread of as a disscussion of real vs fake.....of course if i had the spair cash as many of us would love the real things....sadly in this financial situation just cant justify it....soo looking at the reps...and i think the rep LM's look great, but im really interested in the CH's....

So if anyone owns a pair of CH Rep pleaseeee post pics on here?

Genuine BBS wheels have extra holes between the wheel bolt holes - must be to save weight and add to the cost.  Ive yet to see any replicas with this feature.

And a pic without the holes

 And here is a pic of mine fitted

where abouts did you get those from?

alex

 Not sure where they came from buddy as were fitted to the car when I purchased it.  Some good deals to be had on Flebay, im considering changing mine for some phat porche rims

 the ch 002 dont have holes in! i have had a set in genuine form and no holes in them!

genuine ch002 with no hole!

Cool cheers boys getting there.....as yet only one pic of CH reps fitted thank to CaptMadDog! Cheers Man....and so far im liking!!!!

PLease anymore pics of REP!!! BBS CH's fitted on a car??

according to bbs the copies are soo good you can only tell by measuring the cap.. if you need to check yours are speak to dent reform.

 So could mine still be genuine even though they dont have the extra holes?

They were sold as genuine by the previous owner? My centre caps are definately the real deal as Ive measured them and checked the part no!

All confused now

I had a look on Google images and you can tell the difference. The 5 holes where the bolts go, on the genuine BBS alloys its sunk in, where as the reps aren't.

Genuine

They're nice them RS-GT's mate. Have you got a picture of your car with the BBS CH reps on please? I was thinking of getting some.

Thanks

Here are a couple but will be giving it a good clean this weekend so will be posting some better ones soon.

Hey Capt...there looking great!

Come on people...anyone with pics of standard silver CH Reps?

matt_mkiv:

 

genuine ch002 with no hole!

no holes and smalled cap diametre.. not genuine bbs..

genuine no holes

hmmm, we have a few old pdf's here, BBS only show ones with holes, checked old catalogues here too.. maybe they were a spesific version for a manufacturer or application but aftermarket (to the public) BBS CH have holes.

(edit: not calling you a lier... just seams BBS do and don't put holes in the CH's! totally confusing)

online though some CH have holes (silver) and holed (black)

http://www.bbs.com/en/showroom/showroom.html

Mine are 100% genuine and don't have the holes.

Phil

 i think the ch002 dont have them, they are older and discontinued now.

the bbs ch012 do have holes in, but fit the mk5 not mk4!!

 Just picked my CH reps up from the couriers.

Took some photo's for you - I have to say, on first impressions they seem of a very good quality. The tyres are questionable - Duro Performa?! But the finish of the wheels is excellent. I'll be replacing the tyres with a reputable brand next month, when payday comes around again!

The smudging on the wheels is some sort of protective spray, and excuse the state of them - they haven't had the poorboys/megs treatment yet

i was looking at the reps on mersey speed they don't look to bad. 

 Top choice of wheels buddy - well I would say that wouldnt I lol

They look wicked!! can see i might be buying some of these!...tho still waiting for someone with the silver ones to put pics up!!

Where did you get these from Chris?

Cheers

Hi Tony,

Got them from http://www.wheelsdirectsw.co.uk/

£575 the set, including tyres and fitting kit.

I got the last set, but they said that there would be more stock arriving, of both the black and silver wheels in around a fortnight.

Thanks Chris, sounds a good deal that. I've seen the silver ones at Wheelbase in Oldham which is only about 15 miles from my house and they're £600 with new tyres, new bolts and locking nuts, fitted. I bought some RS8's from there but sold them on my old Golf.
