VeeDub 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 I'll be ordering some wide lips for my 15" RMs in the near future and a few people here have expressed interest in also ordering some. Am still working through quotes to get the best possible prices but if anyone is keen please PM me with what you want so I have an idea on numbers.

Forrest 35 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 Hope you got my pm the other day dude, username change since then but anyway. Keen depending on price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 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! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
340i 3 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 roughly how much would one be looking for 17"x4" outer barrels? what finish do they come in? and who makes them? got a website we can look at, or is it secret squirrel? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeddy 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 roughly how much would one be looking for 17"x4" outer barrels? what finish do they come in? and who makes them? got a website we can look at, or is it secret squirrel? There are lots of places that do them. Look on ebay .com, .de, .uk and search for BBS. Justmatz website is good. Finding the cheapest bits depends alot on exchange rate. for example i got a quote of 375EURO for 4x lips for a set of 15" RS's or Justmatz is 90POUND ea. Then Tunershop in the states is $159. Also have to account for shipping which is where you will most likely save with the group buy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.

340i 3 Report post Posted May 29, 2010 cool. probably 17x4" lips x2. ill need to check this, but thats about the size im after. what date are you looking to order these? also, can you get spiked bolts from the same place too? those are sick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
340i 3 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 cool. also, might be keen on the tool to remove/fit the little wheel bolts. heres the rims, they're Strosek, made by BBS. I've just bought them and am getting them delivered next weekend, so can measure the 34 bolt pcd at that point if need be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
340i 3 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 keen on something like this http://www.titanium-touch.de/shop/product_...ab98f18cfcc8e75 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
340i 3 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 yeah im really hoping they are the same. i cant see why they would be different but will measure them to check anyway. do you have an idea on prices and shipping costs yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 yeah im really hoping they are the same. i cant see why they would be different but will measure them to check anyway. do you have an idea on prices and shipping costs yet? 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! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
340i 3 Report post Posted May 30, 2010 when you price up the bolts, can you please check if they're gold coloured or gold plated. it seems they come in both, depending on where you go. ie. this place does gold plated... http://store.blackforestindustries.com/bbsrsbogosph.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2010 FIRM PRICES: 15" $145 16" $317 17" $362 All prices are per lip and regardless of width (so you might as well go wide!)
