Damn, those BBS might be too big for my tastes. Good luck selling them, they're hot!


They aren't really. Especially for your AWD. You have plenty of room, trust me. ;) The fact is that those pictures displayed above I think all show them with WAY too little tire. Just my .02

Just saying... in the future... that could have been had for 60 dollars. Rope is never a good idea to support an engine. You could have bought chain, ya know? Just saying. Be safe. :)

Glad your car is getting fixed... and good job doing it yourself. Hopefully you only have to do it once.


It's all fixed (except that bracket for the sensor) .... I'm not doing this job again unless I've got a lift I can use, and a transmission jack.

Was thinking the same damn thing!!! Lets mount stupid bicycle tires on BBS wheels. I would mount proper tires on said wheels if I fall for them.

They aren't really. Especially for your AWD. You have plenty of room, trust me. ;) The fact is that those pictures displayed above I think all show them with WAY too little tire. Just my .02

Lee or Joel need to buy those! I'd rock the shit out of them if they were 18x8 an I had the moneyz.

On a side note... Paycheck didn't come through which means there's probably a paper one at work for me tomorrow. Also it wasn't as much as I hoped since I calculated how much it was gonna be wrong. Looks like I have to wait 2 more weeks to get tires... :(

Daniel, what's the offset?

MWC gets first crack before I list for sale:

18x7.5" BBS RK, silver finish, need some refinishing but not terrible as is. A couple have small bends. Anyone interested?

Hot damn those are some sweet BBS wheels. Not enough spokes for me, though. :ph34r: :ph34r:

They'd be on my S60 but for the 7.5" width, which is perfect for an 850/70 series.

Lee, offset is 42.

Yep. A friend needed something to replace an '87 Benz 550 SEL. Something with a little better MPG and cost of maintenance. ;) Gave her a fair deal. Should make the transaction this weekend. :)
