Who makes a wheel like this?
I have always loved the BBS wheels on the C5-R as in the pic. Is there any wheel out there that is similar for a C5? Any pics/where I can get them are appreciated

Not quite as many spokes, but perhaps the "most similar" you'll find, right down to the faux centerlug appearance... would be the CCW C14s.

Well... I already have CCWs on it. (505A) I've been thinking of the C14 for a while, but they just don't quite do it for me. I'm looking to replace my 505As because it is a 20,000 mile a year daily driver and thanks to work I don't have the time to keep them as nice as I would like. I'm looking at the 360/Forged Mesh 10 and Mesh 8. They look pretty much dead on except they have a much larger lip and of course the lug area is an obvious 5 instead of the faux centerlug that the CCW has (and the real centerlug of the BBS)
I was just hoping to find something cheaper!
Unfortunately I think I just have expensive taste.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't BBS stop making wheels that fit the C5? The only thing I don't like is the visible rivets on the LM. Even when they are functional for holding a 3 piece together I don't like that look. Is there actually a BBS available somewhere?
