Where to find BBS 16" 4 lug centers.

[Ash147]

Im after some cheap 16" bbs 4lug centers. can be either in 4x100 or 4x114.3

Does anyone know the best place to where i could find some?..

What sort of BBS do you want? I'd be trying eBay if you're after something cheap, they pop up for sale on here sometimes too, just depends what model BBS you're after.

[Ash147]

After centers for BBS RS. Sorry i forgot that.

If anyone has any here in 4lug that they are not using?..

Or any 4lug bbs rs wheels in general.. have a set of bbs rs 5x114.3 and cant redrill =[

[mikinoz]

Your selling the BBS on Boostcruising right Ash?

[Ash147]

haha yeh there the ones mate.

Having troubles finding any 4lug ones anywhere! Lol.

[mikinoz]

They are about, you just need to pony up about 3K

[Ash147]

Lol yeah. thats it. very pricey.

Was looking at pcd adaptors; but they'll just push the wheel out too far.

would need epic camber to get them back in. haha.

Look overseas for centres, will most likely have more luck and save some $$$s that way.
Even look out for 4x114.3 centres (more common) and get them drilled/filled and drilled if need be!

[Ash147]

Yeah true that mate. Ive been looking around a bit but ive only found full sets of wheels, starting at like 2k!.. its crazy..

Might just 5lug my car and be done with it... lol.

Put some wanted to buy threads up on forums, you would be surprised what you can find!

I was after a set of BBS RS and put a WTB thread on the R31 skyline club, day later had a set of 4x100 15" RS on their way from Vic to my door for cheap cheap some people dont know what they are worth hehe!

[Ash147]

haha nice buy man.

I would but i cant for some reason =S.

Cause im a new user maybe?

Let me know if you see anyone willing to swap for a set of 5lug ones. =D

4x100 16's are very rare Ash, or any 4 stud 16's for that matter...

The 4x100 16's that fit VW's and E30 BMW's are RS003's. They use the same centres as the 15's (RS001), just with bigger outer lips and barrels to make up the diameter, they have 30 parameter bolts, the 5 stud 16's like yours have 34 parameter bolts so have bigger centres with 2 more cross spokes. So your outer lips and barrels won't fit a 4 stud centre.

Porsche BBS RS have the bigger centres as well, but with ET50+ so plenty of room for adapters.
I had some 003's, heres a pic so you can see what i mean about the smaller centres,



They sold for $2950 on eBay!!

You could sign up on www.edition38.com and have a look in the classifieds - or try your luck on www.ebay.de most of the germans speak english and if you ask them if they're willing to ship wheels to Australia you might be lucky, they're usually game.

[Ash147]

Oh cheers mate. Thanks for your help

Wow; those are in beautiful condition, one day, if i manage to fit mine, would like to buy all new bigger lips, bolts and rebuild them to look like that.

Ah porsche are +50mm ay?.. Thats an idea.. Would be good if someone has some 16" centers of any stud pattern with a +40 to +50 offset that they dont need. Let me know if youve seen any about ;P

Then i could run pcd adaptors and still sit nicely flush with the guards; instead of it sticking out like an inch.

Whats wrong with sticking out a inch

[Ash147]

Oh only cause id have to get some new tyres.. cause i have like a brand new set of 205/45's here.. haha.

If someone wants to swap for some 195/45's or something haha.
