BMW M Coupe with a new set of boots

We still have the BBS LM's for this car but always wanted to have the Roadstar style OE wheels in 18". This wasn't possible in forged wheels until recently as the tooling/forgings to get a decent size rear lip were not available without considerable investment. They weigh about the same as the stock wheels despite being bigger and wider. They are not a direct copy but have been modernised in a very subtle way.
