BBS CH (Motorsport)

It's been a while since I've posted anything on here... thought I'd post a couple pics. I'm about done with the mods for now. Almost 150.000 km and the car has been superbly reliable. Got some 18x8 (ET38) BBS CH wheels this year which I'm really happy with, running 20mm spacers on back.

Enjoy!

Looking good. More people should run BBS wheels on the TSX. If they weren't so unbelievably expensive for even used ones, I would have some.

Did you plan on getting an A-spec lip kit?

Thank you guys.
You're right, BBS wheels are not cheap but personally I prefer high quality over cheap soft wheels. Some of those inexpensive moderately good looking wheels are so soft that they bend if you look at them wrong. Other ones are notorious for cracking under even moderate impacts, and a crack on the front face of the wheel is most often fatal. Check out the real thing vs "fake replicas".



It's been a while...how do I post pictures for everyone to see?

Hello guys, I've found some time this weekend and posted couple pictures.
Edit: Just checked the car, the rear spacers are 15mm, not 20mm.

Enjoy.




























Know your lanes. PASS ON THE LEFT, DRIVE ON THE RIGHT.

Thank you for the kind word. Are you referring to the center caps? When I got my wheels I took them to a tire shop. Some of the BBS caps have circling rings to keep them in place, unfortunately the tire shop "specialist" (some knucklehead with half the brains) used the end of a hammer to remove my carbon fiber center caps, breaking off several tabs at the same time.

I was LIVID!!. Took my wheels somewhere else and ended up buying new center caps since the old ones kept falling off.
