    they probably are fine. i know at work we have had some headaches with metal sections imported from china, the grade of the material was nothing like what we normal call up and design for.

      Im interested in the lips aswell. currently my rims are 15x6.5 +25. Im looking at 15x7-7.5 with an offset of about +15. Should i be going for a 1.5" or 2" lip?

      cheers
      What size lips are they currently? If they're 0.5" lips (which I'm assuming they are), then getting a 1.5" lip will make them 15x7.5 ET12.

        yeah quite sure its stock standard .5" lip. cool thanks for that. add 1" to 6.5 and minus 12.7 off offset? wasn't too sure but you have re-affirmed my assumption.

          That's worrying I'm still waiting for them to come in, so will see what's up once they get here...

            Im sure they will be fine ray, was just saying
            thinking ill be needing some 17x2s and 17x2.5s (not sure if i should get 3s on the rear ) to do my coilover setup, might just run leftovers on the vento rather than break the bank at this point.
            would anyone else be getting other things like centre caps, bolts, badges and so on?

                I woke up thinking I might get my centers chromed.

                Ok so what i will do is start the process of finding out the costs. I am pretty sure the sweet spot for shipping is going to be 20kg per package from Germany which from my experience is not stupid expensive so I am going to ask the question probably tonight based on what is In the thread. It might be more effective to do 2 shipments based on weights.

                Are all of these for RS or are some RM?

                        If everyone just shouts out what they're after I can get a price. I've spent over 5500 euro with RTH so he looks after me. Free shipping to NZ etc (from here to AUS isn't much). I've just had another lot arrive yesterday, wish I had seen this a few weeks ago!

                        More coming in the next month or two though so will see what prices I can get for you all.

                          As mentioned a few posts back, can i please get a quote for 4x1.5" lips 30 holes for 15" BBS RS rims. Wouldn't mind a quote for 4 polished centre hex caps and badges aswell if possible. I'm from Victoria.

                          thanks Veedub!

                            FYI BBS have just ceased production of the RS badges. Everything that's out there, is out there. Snap up the new ones while they're still new, but prices have gone from roughly 25Euro to 100Euro for a set of four! I'll give this a few days for people to drop in what they're after and i'll get a price for everyone. Hopefully it's cheaper

                              Yeah like I said earlier too, 2x 1.5 and 2x 3 inch 15 rs lips and polishes hex caps. Maybe just the lips but a price for the caps would be nice if its easy to get. If not dont worry bout it.

                              Thanks!
