    Need these wheels gone now... (BBS and Atiwe)

    I've had these wheels up for sale on here (and on the CL) before but never had any serious buyers. I'm going on vacation on Sunday the 23rd (Hawaii, woot!) and when I get back from there I'm going on a "long-term business-trip" compliments of Uncle Sam.
    So time is of the essence and the prices are stupid accordingly....

    Set 1: BBS RJ 407 15x6.5 ET33 CB 57.1 (OEM Corrado G60 weaves)
    They're not perfect they have some nicks, bumps, and scratches, they also have some filled-rash. But they ballenced well last time I had it done and they are just the ticket for daily use. If you wanted they could be made perfect with some effort. No centercaps. Tires on them are super-shot...









    Price: $150

    Set 2: Atiwe Typ-B in 15x7 ET18 4x108

    I got these out of Germany for my e30 thinking that they were 4x100. They went strait to my local wheel shop to get straitened, trued, blasted, powder-coated and perfected. I just got them from the shop and when I went to mount them, guess what? They're 4x108.

    Anyway, they are damn-near perfect in every way. Like I said, I just got them back from the shop. They are strait and true and have fresh powder coat (one coat of 'porsche-silver' and two coats of clear). Stainless valve-stems. The tires on them are new 205/55R15 Falken Ziex 912's. If you can't use the tires, I'll keep them.

    On to pictures...




    As for background on these wheels, Atiwe made, amongst other things, alloy wheels for most German applications from the 70's until 1994 when their wheel division was bought-out by Borbet. I have never, ever seen another set of these wheels in North America.

    If you want some really nice and unique old-school wheels for your 5-cyl Audi, Escort, Focus, Saab 900, or what have you, these are them. No, they wont fit on an e30 without some ingenuity...
    Price:
    $1000 with tires
    $700 w/o tires

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Since my time is limited, I can only offer these to serious local buyers for pickup or possably drop-off within a few miles of Kent. If you want, shoot me an offer, the worst I can do is ignore you...

    Isn't 4x108 an Italian pattern? I bet you could sell these to a FIAT or Alfa guy in a heartbeat. Those guys are paying big bucks for wheels because they're impossible to find.

        Fiats and Alfas use either a 4x98 or 4x100 bolt pattern IIRC.
        4x108 is/was the standard Ford 4-bolt pattern and was also used by Audi and Saab until the early 1990's. Judging by the offset I'm sure these were originally intended for Cosworth Escorts...
