Title: Thourt i finally had my BBS RC's today.
Post by: jonnyturbo on 04 July 2009, 18:55
Well went to view these this afternoon. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&item=230353825971 (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&item=230353825971). Sadly tho when i got there the kerbing was worse than discribed / showed in picture. Lad was helpful tho said i could have them for £400 with tyres which was great. Just thourt the kerbing was too bad to repair. As i want some with the orignal finish on them OH well keep looking jonny Boy Humph

Any decent wheel refurbisher will be able to sort out any kerbing, but expect to pay £300  :cry:
Keep looking a set will pop up soon enough  :wink:

Not entirely true, AFAIK.  You can get authentic BBS CH's in 5 x 100, IIRC.  It's the Ed. 30's CH's (Pescara's) which will obviously be 5 x 112. ;)
