Well I bought a set of BBS RK500's a few months ago and have been restoring them since. I snapped one bolt when reassembling them so took it to the local wheel repair shop and they managed to crack the barrel in several places and swear it wasn't them who damaged the wheel, ignoring my proof of the barrel without cracks before I dropped them off. So unfortunately I'm on the hunt for just one 17x8 ET38 BBS RK500 Barrel. It's a long shot but I've spent way to much on these wheels to give up now. Wiling to travel across NZ

Very rare set of wheels, originally an option for e31 8 series. Front 8Jx17H2 IS10 Rear 9Jx17H2 IS19 Mad lip Will polish up nicely once rattle can paint has been stripped (P.O.) Centres absent. Small inconsequential hairline crack welded for piece of mind, spun by local tyre shop who can provide report for buyer. Happy to ship at buyers risk/expense. I can’t stress how unusual these wheels are, looking to simply recover costs. Wife says too many wheels....... asking $1200

I’ve got two sets of BBS RC wheels, 090 (style 5s) and 304. The 090’s have minimal curbing and the plan is to polish the lips, clean the centres (paint if needed), tidy the hardware (probably plate them) and eventually BBS RS style centre caps. However I’m not sure what tool(s) I’ll need to remove the bolts. I’m also assuming they can be reused. The 304’s on the other hand have been rattle can’d black by the PO to hide a fair amount of curbing. Finish wise I was thinking paint strip and repaint in another colour and get some new BBS centre caps (rather than mangled BMW badges like they currently have). The curbing will need to be addressed, what’s the best procedure for this? Pay someone (e.g. wheel magician), bog them, special wheel repair stuff(?) or get a mate to weld them and then file it down. I’ll post some pictures tonight.

Hey guys. I've found another project car, so up for sale is my beautiful E39 540i Msport on genuine BBS wheels. This car has an amazing history of maintenance and receipts totalling $25k+ Car has done 188,000kms, this will go up as its my daily. Major things that have been replaced/repaired are: - The tiptronic trans has been rebuilt - $5k receipt - Cooling system has been replaced - $2k receipt ** Timing chain tensioner has been replaced - this is an important one, not many E39's for sale out there that have had this taken care of. - Belts have been done within the past couple of years. It's very tidy inside and out and drives beautifully. The leather is in great condition. Has the factory head unit but has had after market speakers, amp and sub installed, sounds very good. All windows work, sunroof works perfectly and the rear pop up blind works great too. A previous owner has installed an oil catch can and deleted the rear muffler, the car sounds lovely with a few pops and crackles on decel, but not obnoxious. Things that I would look into if I were to keep the car are: - Very slow oil leak - I think this is coming from around where the oil catch can has been installed, if not it's probably a seal. The amount of oil is very little. 3.9k ONO. Test drives are welcome and encouraged. Car is located in Glenfield. --- Note: car will come on BBS wheels in the first image. Cheers.

I've got a set of BBS CHR's and currently they're in black with slight curbing rash and basically I'm after getting that fixed aswel as getting them made silver and I was wanting to know where you guys would recommend getting this done and what method you would go of painting them. The black ones are what I have currently, and the other is what I want them to look like and I'm happy to take them anywhere between Taupo and Auckland

Sooooo, lucked into a set of Pitlane's for my e28 only to find the following: existing nuts are too short, and, the cavity where the head of the wrench would go in to tighten nuts is too narrow to accomodate the wrench.......... such a noob. cheers!

Happy new year everybody. Have a set of 5 of the wheels, 6 centre caps and 4 Potenza RE002 225/50R16s that are about 2/3rd worn. The wheels are ET20 and were OE on E39s, but I have been running them comfortably for the last couple of years on my E28 with hub spacers. The paint on a couple the wheels is damaged where some idiot prior to me was running external wheel weights (who does this?) and one is curbed. Can't vouch for their straightness, but it was good enough for my application. Understand the caps fit a couple of different BBS wheels. Happy to look at selling a set, just tyres, just caps, just wheels or whatever. All reasonable offers considered. Having just re read the forum selling protocol, I'll add that indicatively I'd be happy with $200 for the tyres and $200 for the wheels.

Happy new year everybody. Finally, after a year of patiently waiting for me wife to OK the budget, I have been able to buy rubber for the BBS RN I have had sitting in the garage and put them on our E28 :-) To finish the job off I need to fit centre caps. As is apparantly normal, all four stock BBS centre caps that came with the wheels have broken clips and are in various stages of edge delamination as one would expect from 90s vintage plastic. After doing a bit of research it appears I may have 4 options: 1) glue in the existing caps with something like urethane... after all the rest of the car is hardly perfect 2) buy BMW 70mm emblem stickers (PN 36136758569?), replace BBS logos, glue in 3) buy replacement new BBS 09.24.258 caps 4) buy new BMW caps that fit (not sure these exist, PN?) I'd love opinions from the crowd on which option and whether I can get these in NZ or should order in from somewhere offshore please. Cheers.

Recently became the proud new owner of a particular brilliantrot e30 e318is (+turbo). When I bought it, the diff was making noise, the clutch was (and still is) slipping due to a cheap replacement, the short shift lever was grinding on the driveshaft and it failed a warrant due to the missing highbeam. I've since fixed (or had fixed) all but the clutch and just on the hunt for a decent road clutch that'll take the power it's putting out. I believe the motor was done by Kayne Barrie (or one of his apprentices) in '03 and has been through a few owners in and around Auckland. Here for the knowledge and the know-how that graces these forums and hopefully attend a few meets. Sorry for the shitty quality I-phone photos.

Another painful exercise... Up for sale are the set of BBS RS 003's I custom built. Literally took me years to research, source and build these so someone is going to get a really, really sweet set of rims here! I split the rims myself however they were professionally repaired, re-painted in BMW Alpine White and put back together by the team at Elite Wheels here in Christchurch. Here is the build thread for those interested: http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/28571-need-your-help/page-8 Trade Me Link: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=667104771 $3,995 Not really negotiable on price at this stage as I'm sure someone overseas would snag these if I can't sell here... Such a rare set and I've already covered all the expenses, just waiting for someone to grab em and chuck them on their car!
