BBS 3 piece wheels
« on: 11 June 2005, 14:55 »
The 3 piece BBS wheels on my 1989 16 valve are leaking air. Tyres are fine - it's the actual wheels that are leaking air. Have been advised to split the wheels and replace the rubber O rings. One problem - no-one seems to sell them. BBS say they don't supply parts for older wheels. Anyone any idea where I could buy new O rings for BBS?

Other thing is - some low life has nicked my rear VW badge. The original was grey, but I'd be happy with black or silver. Anyone got one for sale?


Thanks - Tankman
