    Anyone have any cool BBS display wheels to showcase? Let's see them in your home, office, place of work, etc.

    Hello lads, looking at selling a set of RS003s, but hard to find another set for sale to price point at. Condition is about 8/10 with zero gutter rash. They are 16x7 ET25 4x100.

    Having an issue with the BBS RM012. When the technician fitted the wheel onto the hub of my cabrio he said there was lots of play. Aren't these wheels and the car hub both 57.1mm? Any help is appreciated!

    Yes, but double check the last column. It may say "16" center (doublestep)" which means that it is a double stepped 16" face.

    Question for all your BBS experts, which faces are the largest faces for the 17" wheels, basically the 13" center for the RS. My main problem when I had 16's was it had the 12.25 face and the bolts rubbed against my BBK even though the wheels cleared, so I had to space them further out. I know they made a 13" face but dont know which models those are.

    That will get you pretty close to stock. I recommend a satin clear... not too glossy for the stock finish.

    Is the brushed look similar to the stock machined lip? Just got a set if RS211’s that need refinishing but I want the lips to have stock machined look and clear coat!! Hoping that its possible!

    Last year I found some BBS RS003 somewhat local so I went for it. Before I bought these I had been planning on buying some Nogaro Silver Euro Weaves so I decided to restore the RSs in a similar fashion.

    They were in really great condition, so I decided to refinish the stock lips and not spend more on wider lips.

    A little color


    Refinish the bolts in silver or black?



    Black won









    I think Dave's work, from Renewed Finishes, speaks for itself they came out amazing. https://www.instagram.com/renewedfinishes/

    BBS RS waffle help

    Hello BSS Yodas! BBS RS nube here. Need your wisdom...

    I got this set of 4 16" BBS RS's at an incredible deal ($500!)


    For my project


    But I'm missing a centercap. The part number for the waffle is "09.24.028" but I haven't found a matching cap with that part number on CL or Ebay.



    Question: Can I use another part numbers for the waffles? (Searched but couldn't find a definitive answer about part numbers)

    Please advise.

    Cheers!

    tire sizes? spacers?
    assume you had to roll the fenders and quarters for that flush fit?
    16x8 ET14 195/50/16
    16x9 ET14 205/50/16

    So I'm not running any spacers as that would just push out the wheels. Tire sizes are a bit tall compared to what other people run but those are all I had at the moment and they have decent tread on them. I'll probably go with 205/45/16 front and 225/45/16 rear next time. Fronts actually fit without any rolling, the rears needed a slight roll, and by "slight" I mean only needed 2mm's of clearance. I did however give them a full roll so I can run beefier tires down the road.

    This photo is the rear fitment.
