BBS RC 16x7.5 ET35 with tyres....

[Purple Tom 0]

Hi,

 

I’ve decided that selling these wheels would be a good idea in order to free up some room in the garage, although I don’t really want to because it took me a long time to find them! However I’ve now sold the car that they used to be on and I’m currently without anything VAG so I’ve no need for these.

 

They are BBS RC’s, in 16x7.5, 5x100, ET35. Fitted with Hankook Ventus V12 EVO tyres in 215/40ZR16 86W tyres.

 

Two of the tyres have 5mm tread and 2 of them have 4.5mm – so plenty of useful life! I swapped them round front to rear a couple of times hence the fairly even wear.

 

I fitted them to my Corrado TDi last year when I finished the build as I think they really suit the Corrado. When I bought them they needed refurbing so I took them to The Wheel Specialists in Burton-on-Trent, who refurbed them – I have the receipt for this which will go with the wheels.

 

While they were being refurbed I sourced a set of new BBS chrome centre caps from Germany at a cost of £70. Also, this winter while the car was off the road and when I was debating whether or not to sell I had the alloy centre nuts and wheel nut covers mirror polished which makes them look great.

 

All of the wheels are completely unmarked, no kerbing or damage of any sort. The refurbers commented on how straight they were, no eggs or buckles of any sort either. The tyres are in good condition, all hold air and the wheels are balanced so basically ready to fit. I waxed them three times with Poorboys wheel wax too so the brake dust just slides off them!

 

I’ll let the pictures do the talking now:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s how they look on a Corrado:

 

 

I’d like £700 or near offer for them please. Bear in mind that they’re absolutely perfect, they have 4 good, decent quality tyres (see reviews), £70 worth of centre caps, the BBS centre spanner and will literally need nothing doing – ready to fit!

 

Collection from DE56 2JQ Derbyshire please. I would consider couriering them but to be honest I would rather they were collected to avoid damage to them.

 

Thanks

Tom

Want these but no monies :( They look sick on a Corrado!

 

Great price, good luck with sale!

I better bump these up, perhaps think about advertising them elsewhere too :lol:

 

I'm open to reasonable offers - they do suit the Corrado rather well...

Got a set of these on my VR, surprised how light they are and at 7.5" wide give a lovely stance, perfect in my opinion.

Hi Tom, I've got a buyer for my G60 steelies, who I'm seeing this weekend. As soon as I have the cash I will be in touch to take these wheels of your hands!

 

...you heard my Mrs when she said "you're not having any more wheels since you've sold the others", right? ...you're my witness!!!

 

I'll get back in touch after Sunday :)

Nice one Chris! Hope you are well.

Cheers Dave, yep all good here! Having a busy few weeks but have also got a set of (Tom's) 288mm brakes to fit too.

 

There is a danger we'll look a bit "his n hers" when in convoy!!!

Sorry for the delay in replying, I have no internet at home so keep having to borrow it when I'm at my parents house.

 

These sold to G-Lad yesterday, sorry!
