SOLD!
Price Drop!
I finally convinced myself to sell this very rare set of 4x100 Borbet Type T. These are beautiful wheels, especially on an E30. They're in excellent condition. To my knowledge, they've never been repaired. They're straight and round and balance out nicely. The lips have very slight curbage in a few places, but no big gouges or chunks anywhere. I've included pictures of all the less than perfect spots. Center caps are in nice condition too; one has a little discoloration in the lettering. The lips were stripped and polished. In my time of ownership, I've never done more than a quick hand polish. They look good, but could be great with a pro-polish. The centers were stripped and spray painted a charcoal metallic by the PO. He was an older gentleman,a perfectionist, and he did a very nice job. Not spray booth perfect, but solid. There are a few small chips around a few of the lug holes.
I also want to point out that these front wheels are the proper offset that was originally paired with the 16x9s by Borbet. I've seen many folks selling 16x7.5" et35 front wheels paired with the 16x9, but those are just the standard 4x100 16x7.5" wheels. This is the real deal staggered setup!
I do want to mention, as you'll see in the pics, the tires are shot. They're good for fitment and maybe a lap around the block, but the 175 front width is dumb for an E30 anyway. Too narrow, looks weird. The rears are cupped badly and before they were reversed by the PO, they had rubbed on the fenders horribly. Fronts have low tread. Tires are noisy, thanks to the cupping!
Price is $1200.
Would trade only for the right set of BBS RMs in 15x8. For my 16v GTI.
Would prefer not to ship, local pick-up preferred. Willing to meet a reasonable distance too. Located in Bechtelsville, PA 19505.
Thanks! :)
