I am looking to sell my BBS alloys (2pcs) which I got with my 993.

I will upload pics soon as they are currently being refurbed - (diamond cut lip with dark grey centres).

should look like this:

I am in no rush to sell, and fully aware at how hard REAL BBS alloys in a Porsche fitment are to find. WITH staggard fitment and lip. The fronts are 8j and rears 10j (making them good for 996/997s) and the rear lip is about 1/2 inch deeper than front lips.

I will be asking 2750 (the refub is costing me £500) and they will not be used once freshly refurbed. These will be like brand new. A new set of these will cost over £4K so I think it is a fair asking price. I have also just ordered black bolts to go around the alloy at an addition cost of £250. The black bolts on grey would look better (with black and grey bbs centre caps)


Why grey centers and not polished etc. I think the grey centers look amazing on many different coloured body types and they are a popular colour to use with BBS alloys atm:

These are 18 inch alloys so if you track your car should be ideal.

the alloys are with the refub guys but i am browsing through my pics... and i have these code/numbers:

10J x 18H2ET50
144 stamped on it swell
44558 also stamped on it. This is all i can make out from my pics.

Wil get the model number when i get home as the receipt (from new) is in the history book.

if you jump to page 3 you will see the rims when I refurbed them 3 months ago in mirror polished bare metal. this refub cost me 650-700

I had to change them as the bare metal maintence was a polish once a month! waaaay too much for me!
 
Very nice LMs :)

GLWS!

As a heads-up, if you use a good wheel sealant, like FK1000P you dont have to polish polished wheels that often. Just give them a wipe round with a micro-fibre when you get the car back home to stop build up of dirt / break dust.

I'm not sure 18s will achieve the look I want on a 996 will wait and see what they look like post refurb...

Did you font the info on the model numbers?
 
update

Ok guys, went to look at these wheels and they look sooo good. (I might change the advert to say used for 100 miles because I really want to see how they look on my car)

The colour is a shade of anthracite. The wheel guy said its the most poplar on wheel refubs.
