Does anyone knows which wheels are those ?
Looks like BBS RC but not sure.

Bit odd really, they look almost cutom jobbys, if they are BBS wheels, they look more like the CH, but with a more sunken hub.

BBS CH, like most others from BBS, have 16 spikes, and those have 12.
Very nice wheels ideed. Must find which ones are them.

Must be new ones then, and there is no normal for BBS :thumbup:

BBS CH have 14 spikes in the form of 7 x 2 :confused:

BBS LM have 20 spikes in the form of 10 x 2 :confused:

BBS RC have 16 spikes in the form of 8 x 2 :confused:

BBS RX have 16 spikes in the form of 8 x 2 :confused:

BBS RK have 10 spikes in the form of 5 x 2 :confused:

BBS RZ have 10 spikes in the form of 5 x 2 :confused:

They're only running the one new leon?

Very surprised if it beats the toledo's

for this round, yes although the intention is for the other SSS drivers to run the Leon during the season. Makes sense Rydell still has an outside chance to winning the title.

Meanwhile Stephane Ortelli who is a great up and coming driver (and GT race winner) will be racing a Toledo for crack french team ORECA as well. Ortelli is a great driver, so a strong line up of SEAT's when you add Tom Coronel as well

Yes it is. Had a closer look and your right m8 (didn't count every spike but
nonetheless their're not all the same).
Shame they don't have 18'' for the Borbet. :(
