BBS Garage: All things BBS

[NufnSus]

I've been offered a set of BBS RGs at a price too good to pass off;




The exact stamping is;
BBS Germany
GESCHMIEDET RG029
6(1/2)JX15H2ET25


One thing that did come up with worrying frequency when I tried to do some searching on these wheels was the noted difficulty of finding matching centre caps.
Of course, the set I'm looking at comes with 0/4 caps :(

Some further searching bought up this FS thread - searching those part numbers (BBS# 09.32.028P) shows that the assembly will fit RG004 /005 /006 /007 /008 /009 /010 /023 /026 /080M /099 and /999 ... but no mention of RG029?? Would it be safe to assume these caps would still fit the wheels, or is there another assembly / Part No. for them?

Probably get flamed on for this but ahh well...its the only way I can polish my rims the way I want...and it works for me. So far I've done 2 rims and they've come out perfect...30-45 minutes from a rim that still has clear coat on them to the final 2000 grit run. The squealing on the video has been eliminated by using lithium grease on the wheel barrow bearings.

There's a guy in Jacksonville, Florida that does it, he did my wheels and they came out great. His name is Steve, he goes by LUGMAN in Jacksonville. PM me if you want his cell number.

BBS's in 4x100 are pretty much rare as diamonds in this part of the world.

hey I have bbs rz that I had filled and redrilled and running gorilla hubrings with them. I got the tires mounted and balanced but whenever I go about 55-75 I have vibration in the steering wheel... am I fucked is this because of the hub rings or is there another solution? I thought about buying metal hub rings and wheel studs anyone have any advice?

I prefer the plastic/uhmw hub rings. Aluminum ones cause galvanic corrosion and weld themselves to the hub.
