    alright everybody, the moment i've been dreading has arrived. i'm putting my BBS wheels up for sale. i've decided to go cheap and am gong to rock the stockers this year. sucks to be me.

    these are some pretty rare wheels. don't believe me? just call tire rack and ask them when they will get them in stock. they list special order for all of their warehouses.

    i pulled these apart and had them sandblasted and powdercoated gloss black in march of 2005. at that point i cleaned up the barrels and hardware. the titanium screws were all cleaned, run through a die, and then the threads were sprayed with loctite 7649 primer (a titanium thing). then i applied removable loctite and sequentially torqued them to BBS's specs. at that point they were better than new.

    they have seen one more summer and one track day since then. the centers are absolutely flawless. the lips are in great condition with only the minor knicks and scrapes that come from mounting and unmounting the tires. they have no curbage of any kind.

    the package includes:
    - a set of 5 17x8 BBS RK 2 piece wheels as mentioned above.
    - 4 BBS carbon fiber centercaps ($72 from purems.com)
    - Rad wheel locks ($41 from purems.com)
    - 7 extra BBS valve caps ($6 each on eBay)
    - one extra BBS valve core
    - set of 20 BBS lug nuts
    - set of 4 BBS anodized aluminum hubcentric rigs with retaining clips

    PRICE - $1500 plus shipping and paypal fees if paying via credit card.


    before powdercoating:


    after:










    boxed up and ready to go.






    tire rack has these for $549 each plus shipping. BBS RKII link


    thanks for looking.

    bump. great wheels for those that live in areas with rough roads. they are very strong wheels and let you run enough sidewall to maintain a little luxury.

    looks like you'll need 19" wheels to clear those brakes. the caliper extends about 5/8" too far.

    i just checked a couple templates. ECS stage 3 with Big Red calipers and 12.6" Porsche 993TT rotor rings are the largest brakes that will fit.

    Good luck on the sale Jim. They are VERY NICE wheel, and look even better with the black centers. I haven't had a serious bite on my car yet, so I guess I can assume that people don't want to buy Audi 'stuff'!

    Later,

    If I had the money, I'd upgrade. But I don't.
    How much do they weigh?

    This has got to be the best deal on this page with all the extra stuff in the box.

    Bump for incredible wheels and a good seller.
