Default BBS RS 16" Gold basketweave wheels $1200 (Ma)

i've got a nice set of original, gold finished bbs rs025/rs026's which are a 5x120 fitment. these are a corvette fitment wheel.

9x16 (front) and 10x16 (rears) at et36

these wheels are in nice shape considering their age. they could be easily polished up and run as-is, or broken down and rebuilt for a show finish.

one of the caps is missing the bbs center logo.

if you have any questions please feel free to touch base with me via PM. i'd rather not ship but i'm open to it. i am willing to drive ~1.5hrs from boston to meet a serious buyer (as in, cash in hand).

high res pics here here.

thanks guys!

the center caps on BBS wheels are hard to find, if found they are EXPENSIVE.

the offset on these wheels might not work for the all c4's. I know the bolt pattern will work (BMW 5x120)

also, tires (decent width) is hard to find for a 16 inch wheel.

I like BBS wheels and they things are typically light weight. But with the current auto-parts market, you might want to consider reducing the price. Only because a set of 17's in CCW's can be found for nearly the same asking price.

thanks for the feedback. i appreciate it. what do you think is a reasonable price?

i may end up parting these wheels out, unfortunately. i'll fill out my profile now.

thanks!

If they were 17's i would have taken them off your hands.

Anyways contact tirerack for a centercap, they should be able to get you that centercap.

In regard to the center cap with the missing BBS logo, it is the center cap that is very expensive by itself as BBS does not make it anymore.

The BBS "puck" that is missing can be ordered directly from BBS and they are on the order of $20 if i remember correctly. You can find them on Ebay also but they can be more expensive than ordering from BBS directly.

My Miata's and RX7's all carry these types of BBS wheels so I have some familiarity with the issues, having ordered the very same pucks.

Finally, wasn't there a guy with a VW rabidly looking for these wheels a little while ago? A search might be in order.
