You sure they're reps Nathan? Look real to me mate. If they're reps they look awesome.

Centre caps don't look very authentic, but hey, I could be wrong  :ashamed:

Good fitment  :love:

Yeah, centres look abit off, but i have seen genuine LM's before with cheap badges letting them down!

Pretty sure the red genuine centers have gold BBS logos on them. So maybe good reps, or someone not had caps and got naff ones.

LMS for the win though  :laugh:

Those wheels in the OP's post look great but they also look like reps.

Id defo say they are reps, albeit good ones!

Nah I disagree, you can tell reps from miles off. They're definitely genuine.
Obviosily everyone's saying about the center caps but you get loads of genuine rs's/rm's with the same caps.
