BBS RS/RM lips group buy

[mrrunx]

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

is there an article on this veedub? can you post a link if there is.. cheers

[mikinoz]

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.

Cheers mate. Are you buying in alloy or stainless gear?

All the same I'd be after a pair of 1.5" and a pair of 2.0" x 15" outers (but will need to confirm before final order)

Let us know! I'd be happy to accept a delivery to AU if it helps out.

wouldnt mind a price on a pair of 17x2.5 and pair of 17x3"
does this place sell bolts/caps/badges? might have to have a look

[rayray086]

Interested in a set of 120 black bolts if they're available and pending price.

[VeeDub]

They do everything BBS - badges, centre caps, lips, bolts etc.

OK I've given it a week or so and will assume everyone who's interested has expressed this. I have emailed off for the following:

mrrunx
4x 15x1.5"
4x 1/4 height caps
4x BBS badges

sortofbigbj
2x 15x1.5"
2x 15x3.0"
4x 1/4 height caps

mikinoz
2x 15x1.5"
2x 15x2.0"

Dylan8 (from memory mate the RTH 17" lips are pricier than his competitors but I will see what I can do)
2x 17x2.5"
2x 17x3.0"

rayray086
120x black bolts (bbs rs) - not sure if these are available

Quasyt
2x 15x2.5"

Let me know if I have got anything wrong above and I will update the list. I'll post up when I have prices.

[mrrunx]

Thanks for this Veedub. I don't know if this will stuff things up but is it possible to get a quote for 4x2.0" lips as well as a quote i have requested already? I am sitting on a fence on weather i want my rim specs to end up being 15x7.5 +12 or 15x8 +6

cheers
jason.

Bugger, mine should be 2x 17x2"
and either 2x 17x2.5" OR 2x 17x3"
I cant decide we will say 2x 17x2" and 2x 17x2.5" for the moment

I don't think the price will vary to be honest.

These prices we are getting for Stainless or Alloy?

yeah i know, just like to be right from the word go...

advantages to stainless vs alloy?

[mikinoz]

A wise man once said to me;

"Stainless, easy to polish hold shine stronger. Stainless muchos more dollaris. I like the shine of alloy better than stainless but that's just me being a steel snob."

[dylan8]

how does stainless go structurally?
hmmmm maybe stick to allow. i know my teledials are easy enough to maintain, however i dont have to go around all the bolts on them...

Sorry to do this mate, I completely forgot about this thread. I ended up ordering the bolts on my own so scrap me out. Again, really sorry.

[VeeDub]

No worries mrrunx, I will update for prices. Price is consistent across the widths (15x1" and 15x4" is same price) so go wide or go home!

rayray that's fine mate, glad you got what you were after.

Dylan8 - price is the same no matter on width so take your time and figure it out. Is it for your bora? I'd say .5" stagger would be nice but you can do 1" stagger no worries either. Remember you always have adaptors that can be machined etc if you cock it up by a few mm.

Stainless is much more pricey but also heavier. Alloy is cheaper and lighter. I can get alloy, stainless or radinox (if you want to be blown away type in radinox lips to youtube!). I think it's best to stick to alloy though, there's no real difference between alloy/stainless at the end of the day if you're just after an immaculate set of wheels.

[dylan8]

hmmm thanks for that. yeah alloy seems the way to go then.

yeah for my bora. ill have 5x100 RS so no adapters or spacers here
hmmm might have to slap some 17s and lots of spacer/adapter behind it and see what happens.
ill get back to you, thanks for the prices and organising so far!!
