Default Looking for info on the BBS drag wheels???

Ive seen a few pictures of the BBS drag wheels and rear skinnies and was curious if anyone knew anything about them?



Sizes available? Available lug patterns? Weight? Price? Who sells them?

Also, does anyone have a picture of them on a car?

Thanks

I think their drag wheel program stalled. They sponsored "Big Len" and his Eclipse. Besides seeing them on his car, i don't think they placed any more in the market. The skinnies and drives were supposed to be extremely light.
The project manager of the drag wheel left BBS a couple of years ago. I haven't talked to them in about that much time. Try calling them direct.

They are available in any size and any lug pattern

$680 +/- per whel (13x8 or 15x8)
$790 +/- per wheels (15x3.5)

I can see now why not many people have these

Prices are a little crazy. Anyone ever notice these where on BigLens car with no apparent way to secure the tire from spinning in the rim (IE wheel screws or beadlocks ?)
