Show me your old school 80s BBS webs

Got a set in the garage and need some inspiration to get them cleaned up.

My oldschool 86 Carrera with 7's 9's BBS. They were coool and would have looked even better if it was lowered, You just need the centers the right color for the car. It had H1's too for night vision. It's a German made quality wheel. I'm not sure if they are forged though?
Edit: I forgot these were a 2 or 3 piece wheel ?

I am pretty sure the 3 piece ones were forged, not so sure about the one piece like emcon5's and mine. I think hey are also lighter then fuchs as well.

Mine had a center cap that covered the lugs that I liked. They are harder to keep clean than a Fuchs but it's kinda cool being different from the norm. I think these were a Porsche option or special wish wheel also.
Now I miss my Carrera

Emcon, does your paint look that good in person? If so, what do you use on it and how do you use it?

Got a set just like Emcon's, but had them while living in Germany and we HAD to have snows. They still have the snows on them but doubt that they will get much use here in Phoenix! Need to clean them up and put a new set of tires on them someday!
