I use a Swiffer duster to clean in-between the spokes and it works great.
Leading evidence: 'Use swiffer duster' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion).

Then every few days (if driven), use the swiffer to clean the spokes and rim of the wheel.

Suggestion · Original poster
does the mesh center classic look make up for the additional time it may take to clean these wheels.

If I ever change tires /wheels again I will probably look for wider in the back if they'll fit.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I purchased the wheels from Alan Baylis @
www.wheelenhancement.com
. I've always heard good things about him and even with some issues I had with his non-proactive communication and shipment error, at the end of the day, he seems like a good guy and I would buy from him again because relatively speaking, many other auto vendors revel in customer service mediocrity.
Anyways, specs are 19x8.5 up front and 12s in the rear. The offsets/widths are the same as the OZ3s I have which are currently for sale. I'm always switching up wheels like I switch up shoes/women - call it a weakness of mine.
The wheels usually take 4-5 weeks to assemble/ship out from Japan, but there was a delay due to lack of supply on the rim part which wasn't great news. I ended up paying Alan my deposit on 8/23 and received the Brombachers on 10/19 (~8 weeks). I setup time with my shop on 10/22 only to find out the offset was incorrect for the fronts to where the brake caliper (stock) clearance was less than a credit card width which is way too close for comfort. Alan on the phone said they sell this fitment all the time which I call BS on since the +51s I got are absolutely spot-on v. the way too aggressive +45. To me, it sounds like he was just covering his **** for a mistake he made or his importer made for 996 widebody fitment with the bigger brakes.
Alan
did step up to the plate
and overnighted at his cost the correct front wheels so I ended up getting them put on the very next day (huge props to
www.cantrellmotorsport.com
). Alan also paid for the extra mounting/balance fees since it was his error. I applaud Alan for the quick turnaround and doing the right thing along this front.
I will likely never order wheels again as I am very impatient about things like this. Unfortunately, they simply don't stock 19x12s since it's such a small niche of the cars that can fit this size. I'm in love with the steamroller look so I like to go as wide as possible. Tires are Michelin PS2 315/25s in the back.
I am very happy with the look and quality of the Work Brombachers and will likely keep these for as long as I own the C4S.
Best,
Ben
Yeah...those are bad-***! Closer shots of the deep in the back when you get a chance. Love the look. They kinda resembe Fikse...right? I know they don't make 12's though.

if anything, the mesh centers are copying the BBS design since they came up with the whole y spoke thing. it's functional and fortuitously looks good as well.
i'll try to get more pics, but steamrolling can be best appreciated in person.
and no, it's cuz i had my headlights on thus the amber.
you guys know me better than to roll with anything aesthetically displeasing! lol
Thx for the comments, fellas.
Love the wheels, but car seems a little too low. I dont like the relationship between the wheels and the wheel wells. Would look better if gap were closer to same on top as on sides. Take a look at SpeedDemon's car. Looks like a better fit.
Nice! Like the color and the look of those rims ESPECIALLY the width of the rears, let's see a shot of the rear tire width and yes let's see the lip! Show us her lips!
If I ever change tires /wheels again I will probably look for wider in the back if they'll fit.
if i had a narrowbody i'd be running 11s. if widebody, 12s with offsets that push it right to the edge without having to resort to fender rolling even when lowered aggressively.
they would look spot-on, riad! and it depends. i'm not a toothbrush to the spokes kind of guy so are they tough? no. do i like to keep my **** clean? yes. does the mesh center classic look make up for the additional time it may take to clean these wheels. YES.
I want to see a better angle of your front offset. I hate the way the center of my LMs poke out a bit past the lip. It looks like your offset is far more aesthetically pleasing.
Well unless I have driven through a mud puddle, which I wouldn't, keeping spoke wheels like this and mine clean is not a PITA. I use a Swiffer duster to clean in-between the spokes and it works great. the key is prep: you must apply a quality polish and wax to the wheel center, yes this will take a little time but worth it. Then every few days (if driven), use the swiffer to clean the spokes and rim of the wheel. If you are like me, then you will have actually removed the wheels to eatil them and so even the back part of th wheel as been done and the swiffer can get in there also. I keep a swiffer in the boot of my car along with Einszett Quick Detailer and a micro-fiber towel.
Thanks to all that like my stance of my car with my wheel clearance, much appreciated. I like the way it turned out, would I want it to be lower, yes, but I cannot adjust it but I do not mind.
I think that Ben's looks good and not too low, but I do understand why some like the equal distance around the wheel/tyre combination.
Pic from my routine grocery run consisting of cereal, milk, ice cream
Per Mr Bonus' request, the face does not go beyond the rim part of the wheel. It has more to do with the LM design than offset I'd say. I know being a three-time BBS LM owner, the center profile is absolutely flat. Even the Work Broms have a slight angle to them, but very subtle to not be able to really take notice.
Perfectly modified Vanquish S my favorite car design of all-time and just how I'd do it up, but would probably go with a silver version
Extra credit: Spyker C8 2500lbs, an airplane company from Holland, at the detail shop I routinely go to ($250K) w/ an RS4/R8 engine. Work Broms would look perfect.
