    What BBS Are These. I Have Searched.

    Just pick up a parts car and these were on it. The owner, the grandson of the original owner, said they are original to the car. I doubt this but, could have been put on the car shortly after purchase if they are a 1980's vintage wheel.

    Vintage?
    Model?
    Value?

    I have found RFs but, these are two piece and mine are one piece, though they do look similar.

        I guess I answered my own question. Mine being the monoblock design and nice to know that they are a period correct wheel for the car.

        BBS Design 5000 – RD & RF wheels

        The first & maybe the most successful star shaped BBS wheels, were the Design 5000 (’80s – early ’90s), RD(monoblock) & RF (3 pieces modular) wheels, produced in silver/polisher & anthracite/polished, which offered the advantage of much easier cleaning compared to the cross-spoke designs.

          They're certainly a refreshing change from the ever present woven spokes.

            I like them better than my current 14" bottle caps. After they are refurbished of course.

              BBS wheel

              BMW must have liked that design alot. The used the exact design, made it a 2 piece, 5x120 available in 17", 18" "square" at 8" wide & staggered at 9" rears, introduced in 1998 with a BMW center cap on the e39's.
