Sorry I didn't get any more pics, kerbing isn't a problem, if it's light you can fix it yourself with a file, if not just take it to Brugar Engineering on Barrys Point Road and they can do them. Phil just had 4 x 16" RS done for $100 and came out superb. They're unique! Check out this set, can't say these are ugly!! http://www.dragtimes.com/images-classified...20542228028.jpg

You'll find that you might not get the centre out like that unless you're lucky. If you have a tyre lying around, place the rim face down on the tyre (put a towel or something soft on the ground underneath). Get a bit of 4x2 or long piece of timber and ram it into the centre downwards through the tyre and onto the soft object. Take care and start soft, i've found that the most effective way to get the centres out. Oven and rubber mallet for lips works fine.

Found these rare style 19s for sale today. 17x8 et20 2 piece. Pretty sure they share the same lips as BBS RS. I spoke to the owner, said he wouldn't go lower than $450 which is a great price with tyres, or hold out and watch the auction. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-298929068.htm

All good Nick, It's hard to do up BBS RS in New Zealand without spending $$$$$ so will be great to see a few more really nice sets rolling around!!!
-
Are they in NZ Jed?? I haven't seen a set here before!
-
No such thing as a cheap refurb on RS unless you want a shitty set of nice wheels! I'm looking at $2500+ for a full refurb including new lips on my RS excluding purchase price. With new tyres you'll easily have 4k+ sitting on the concrete.

3-4 weeks he's told me.

THURSDAY CUT OFF. Only one person has paid for their parts. I am placing the order this Friday, if you haven't paid by THURSDAY you'll get nothing. I hope you understand there's no money yet a fair bit of risk in this for me and I have allowed a buffer of sweet f**k all to ensure we all get the sharpest possible prices. If exchange rate goes belly up i'll be subsidising your lips, hence THURSDAY cut off. Cheers guys, lets get this done!
-
Correcto, all prices in NZD. I've allowed sweet F.A of a buffer so if exchange rate goes balls up i'll in the sh*t! Hence trying to get payment through asap
-
Badges are $65/set (White/Chrome ones are $90/set) Chrome bolts are $1.25 each Gold plated bolts are $1.60 each Half height hex caps are $175/set Let me know if anyone wants any of the above. PMing payment details now. If you haven't received a PM from me re: payment and should have, let me know.

There's a good chance we will be using JustMatz and pretty sure they do LM barrels, just waiting to hear back from them on bolts/barrels/hex screw pricing. How wide you want them? http://www.justmatz.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=Barrells

Cool, have updated this on my sheet.

I just picked up a set of 16x7 RS003s yesterday, am ordering 2 sets of lips for myself so am itching too! I hope you can appreciate the work involved in working through 6 different quotes, 3 different exchange rates and three car clubs in on the group buy (one in Australia). I am doing my best to ensure we get the best possible prices. Will get back to everyone ASAP, appreciate your patience.
-
We are ordering from http://www.racingteam-hofmann.de/ You'll find them on ebay: http://members.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBay...;userid=rth2004 Please take the time to browse their site. If there's anything else you'd like i.e. bolts, centrecaps etc let me know exactly what you'd like and i'll price it and add to order. What you see on the site is what you can get.

Once they've arrived you can collect from my place in Ponsonby or I can post them to you at your cost (prefer pick up!!)
-
I'll confirm before going ahead that they fit the stroseks anyway. No idea on prices yet am waiting to hear back, will be getting quotes through over the next few days i'm sure. With 36(ish) lips on the order i'm pretty confident we'll get them cheap enough to make it a logical purchase!
-
Cool they are the same lips as RS yeah? I have the socket bits for them, you can get 'the bolt shop' on Archers Road, Glenfield (i think that's what it's called). Cost about $10 each.
-
Are your wheels 34 hole? I will get back to you on the spiked bolts thing. Update for all: I have emailed 7 different places/people for quotes and am waiting on replies now. At this stage we are getting pricing on 36 outer lips which I imagine would command a decent price and postage saving.
-
Need these gone now as i've brought another car. Money talks!

BBS RS211 16x8 5x120 et11 In great condition, all centre caps, can come with/without tyres. Tyres are 60 profile so pretty ballooney, doubt anyone would want them. Am considering offers over $1k at this stage and am open to swaps for other sets of BBS RS. Can be viewed in Ponsonby, Auckland. 021 073 6926.

Let me know what widths you're after. I'm still getting everyone's specs this week, the more we get together the better prices we should get. Nothing secret squirrel, I'll be getting quotes once I have all specs so we can get firm pricing from various different suppliers/countries and will factor in the best currency to roll with. I'll then let everyone know the cost of their set incl. their share of the shipping. Hopefully they will work out fairly cheap seeing as we have around 8 sets wanted so far. Finishes are generally (if not always) polished and not clear coated although you may be able to get cleared ones. Will go with a company that everyone is happy with - there are only minor differences but from my knowledge they are all pretty good at what they do. Cheers
-
Yeah Brams I got you in. I'm getting provisional numbers together over the next few days then I can get firm pricing based on that. From there i'll get the OK from everyone and go ahead and order once everyone is happy with the prices. Brockie we can get lips to fit anything. Are yours 34 hole like the ones in your pic? PM me how many of which sizes you're after and confirm 30/34 hole. Cheers!
-
Is there some anal rule here about putting up a price? Currently open to offers over 1k?
-
RS211 on an e30 M3. Gives you an idea how they'd look. http://www.euromcars.com/parts/e30m3/wheel.../rs16ns1-17.jpg

He had first option on them and has decided to hold out for some 17s. These things would make the shittiest of turds look cool.
