There was just something so alluring about the Volk's straight lip....
I have SF-challenges but these are great pics of some mesh style wheels. Love the straight lip. (last one are kinesis)

Well, you just made my mind up! Those SF Winnings are HOT!! I take it thats your Z? If so, do you have any larger pics? Wow, those are so nice.
BTW, I love the SF Challenges as well.

Thanks for the link, but the ones you posted as the LM's, those arent LM's. Infact, they arent even BBS wheels. They look like Purners.

Ah.. BBS LM.. great rims.. They are like Volks for M3 people out there, meaning every man and his dog has one on their M3. j/k
But a lot of my friends with M3 have 19" BBS LM's with Brembo BBK with 14" rotors or some have even 15" rotors. But then, some of them have spacers on their rims to get the clearance.
Maybe LM size application for 350Z has something to do with BBK clearance?

That is what I have been told. I bought my 18" BBS RGR from tirerack and the only reason I didn't buy 18" LMs is because they didn't fit the brembos without spacers.
that;s what I have been told by the tirerack sale rep. If you look on the tirerack website, LMs are available for non-brembo 350z, but NOT available for track 350z. Same thing for 18" RS-GT I think (but not sure)
Anyway, just email BBS japan or tirerack and you will have the answer.

Rad wheel, but not RAYS!
LM's are great. Used by some of the best tuners on the other side of the pond on the most serious 911's running around the 'ring, but it is true brake clearence could be trouble. LM does hint at "LeMans", but there are MANY different centers that make there racing application easier. Racing LM's in addition to being a center lock design (more often than not...) have a center section bolted to the OUTSIDE of the two barrel halves rather than sandwitched for more caliper clearence. The flat face design inherently is also caliper prohibitive...
Answer? Rays!
