Are BBS alloys an investment??

[LaserBlue]

Well as most of you know BBS as filed for bankruptcy because of a major customer pulling out of renewing contract

Who is this customer? VW, SAAB VAUXHALL, VOLVO?

Ive been searching through the net and came across the m5board they have a long thread all about it saying the company isnt dead but close to it and would be wise to buy your desired BBS alloys NOW.
As in the future they will be worth a bomb!!
Also BBS alloys which you cant buy with a car e.g BBS CH with motorsport written on them will be worth more than the ED30 alloys basically non manufacture supplies

This got me thinking about buying a decent set of BBS wheels.. To be honest i have noticed of a few alloy sites the prices are a little higher most over £1000!!

I love the BBS CK


BUT ive just purchased a set of S3 alloys so im keeping an eye on ebay and other site for a decent set of BBS


Anyway which are your desired BBS alloys?

BBS LM's

well tbh i dont think there an investment at there still readily available and will be for the forseable future, that said there is some very nice rims by BBS

Apparently BBS have been going to go bust for about two years. You can go to many alloy wheel places and get any set of BBS with relative ease. I have just picked up there 2008 product catalogue. I don't think BBS are going bust at all, it is just a rumour that has bin exaggerated massively.

oh and i love BBS ck's too

If you look at this in the cold light of day..............car parts as an 'investment'? 
In the true sense of the word ?

No way

Unless of course someone can point to an aftermarket part that's making well above its original purchase price, and may well be setting a trend ?

I won't be holding my breath.

BBS are continuing to trade.

They were purchased by a large company called Punch International early 07. We have been appointed the UK importer and have been suppling the current range of wheels since June 07.

Most styles are available ex factory with only some of the RX wheels on back order.

The new additions to the BBS range are pictured below.
