I am running a 15mm spacer on my stock wheels and could go up to 18mm as others do.

At a more friendly cost for look alike are these from ESM, I picked up a set on Craigslist couple years ago, just haven't put them on yet.
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.

Hi everyone,
I have been looking for BBS LM for my 996 4s for a long time.
However, it is very expensive and I do not have the means to put that much money.
I saw that on Alibaba one could get almost "custom-made" wheels and I started a request for the making of wheels getting close to the BBS LM without wanting a copy with BBS written on it etc... only the look closest to the original interests me.
I have had a few modelings that I am having corrected for the moment because it does not suit me.
The problem being also that I cannot really find beautiful photos from different angles of the BBS LM in order to say what I want or not.
What seems to cause a problem for the designer is the large disc and brake caliper.
Currently, I asked for the front: 8.5/18 ET50 and for the rear 11/18 ET46.
I am attaching a photo of the latest design which shows that the left wheel is concave and I do not think that is the case on the originals.
Or maybe someone has technical drawings with measurements of the caliper etc...?
Thank you

Is working on something along these lines. Checkout his thread (wheels mentioned in post #195)

They custom-design to your exact specifications and are a member of this forum. I have no association with them, but they did some beautiful designs for me.
I feel like the rear offset should be more aggressive if you are doing custom wheels. I am running a 15mm spacer on my stock wheels and could go up to 18mm as others do. I would think you might want an et30 ish offset.
I allready paid for the rendering of the wheel :/
Not easy for them because they are afraid about the big Caliper on a 4S...
As they not have the right measure, they didn't take risk.
This is why if someone have them on his car to have some picture in different angle.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
