Wtb: Bbs e50 / e49 / e26

[CFK]

Hi, I am trying to piece together a set of BBS E50 / E49 / E26 15x7/8" Flatbase behind mount wheels. I am 4x100 , but will adapt. Aiming for a final offset of Approximately ET 17-30. So adapting might not even be possible with the added 18mm.


All Parts needed:
- 5" Barrels, 2" lips ( 20 Bolt )
- 4.5 Barrels, 2.5" lips, etc.
- Centers of coarse

Cause it's pretty:

Thanks

Good luck, these wheels are as rare as men getting pregnant.


So try this website....

ya, they quoted me $ 4350. The barrels and lips aren't that bad, it's the magnesium centers that cost the most. They are not even that hard to find in 5x120 or 5x130 fitment, it's the 4x100 / 4x108 that will be the trickiest.

I am persistent and will find them..............Eventually ;)

Man I had a set on my old 2002, but sold them with the car. :(

i would get a set of 5x130 and run adapters, the FK adapters are 20mm thick so they aren't that bad..

Yeah and reading their website you can't assemble these on the tire like a normal wheel which is weird. If you find more than one set let me know bc I'm interested as well haha, seriously! :pimp:

Since I will be running them on a VW MK1 I would either have to go with a 6.5" or widen the arches. I have enough bodywork, I don't even wanna get into that.

Gotta be crazy & or stupid to run these on the road, magnesium center + dissasemble it everytime you wreck a tire, but flatbase is where it's at. Otherwise I would just get a E30 and drop center it to 14".

I'm having enough trouble finding 1 set let alone 2. I would probably just take a second morgage and buy the second set. :p

If I had a Porsche or BMW I would have had these wheels months ago, 5x120/130, no problem.

So 2002's, E21's & E30's are 4x100. E36 on is 5x120 ?

I've got a set of 5x130 BBS E30 variation interested?

Yes E36, E30 M3 are 5x120
2002, E21, E30 are 4x100
If I find something I'll keep you in mind.

I wish, but adapting won't work for me. Need 4x100/108.

Yes E36, E30 M3 are 5x120
2002, E21, E30 are 4x100

Thanks.


And I do check Memory Fab all the time, gave them a call but they usually only get the 1 peice magnesium ones.

I found some 5x130 centers that I could shave down enough to run adapters.

Still looking for lips.
