    FS: BBS RS Turbofans - complete set

    For sale:

    Full staggered set of Turbofans. These are a once used set dating back from the early 80s with all original documentation and hardware included.

    They have 30 fins which fit perfectly on most small bore BBS RSs in 15" & 16"

    Fronts are low profile while rears are deep. I have fit them onto 18" RSs with 17" centers and large bore centers without issues. Again, I cannot confirm fitment for you.

    Price:

    $2050 shipped. Firm.


    contact me: aprses a.t. gmail. D.O.T com

    These are the exact fans on 18" BBS RSs:







    This is an old set of mine on 17" BBS RSs:





    On 16" BBS RS003s:

        These are ABS injection molded plastic. They're very Durable unless you're actually dropping them onto their fins from some height... which you wouldn't actually ever do.

        Also in regards to the hardware included:

        Threaded adapter rings to mount these into the centerbore of non BBS-RS wheels

        Threaded plastic hex nuts that go with those adapter rings

        Documentation for how to attach parts

        Big plastic nut & 1/2" drive socket to tighten the hex nuts

          There was another set for $2000 that sold recently:

          http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/show...highlight=fans
          Those were mine and I actually sold them for $2500. And my other full set for 2k range. And two separate pairs sold for over $1000 each.

          The pound is strong compared to the dollar ;)

          GLWS they're rare!

            I want to just buy these and store them. They'll be worth a crazy amount in 20 years haha. Any idea if they'll work on RC090's? The 2-piece style 5's.

              Not that they don't look awesome on 16" 17" and even 18" wheels, but don't overlook how good they look when properly matched to 15" R001s. Note the flush fitment.



              Don't see too many staggered sets for sale so even more epic. GLWS
