Raceland coilovers and widelip rims DC Area R53

Category: Suspension
Price: $200
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R50, R52, R53
Location (Region): NorthEast
Item Condition: Used

Removed from my project car. Car was set up too aggressively for my tastes. These are all off of a 2006 MCS.

The two right wheels need heavy cleaning (the ones pictured are the left wheels I started to clean). I also do not have center caps. There are stretched 17 inch tires on the wheels with good tread. I took a quick look and the rims do not appear to have any bends. I am unsure of the wheel brand.

The struts do not leak but the boots are torn.

Rear struts are adjustable. $200 for both the wheels and coilovers but you must pick up in the DC area.

17x8.5J current tire size is 205/40R17

Those look like true 2-piece wheels?

Equivalent of a barn find?

They are 5-lug, so I need to get adapters, or drill them....If those are BBS's, that's a great price, don't want to tell you what I paid for mine, and still have to restore them.......

I feel like it was more than $200?

sorry to hijack thread - but seriously I think you can get a lot more for those wheels alone depending on specs.

Agreed guys but they are taking up space and unfortunately they have to go quick.

I dont think they are real BBS guys. The area under the caps and the spokes are not quite the same if we are thinking they were RC090's

still a good deal of course

The cap area definitely looks slightly odd. I'm assuming he took the initiative to look behind the spoked for any stampings and there's no BBS, otherwise that would be stated. Either way, if they're 2-piece it's likely that they're of higher quality (likely forged) than some knockoff faux 2-piece wheel.

Just looked at my wheels, they are stamped in the lug area with BBS and a bunch of numbers. It's hard to tell on your because they look like they were drilled. I haven't looked anywhere else on the rim. at any case. GLWS!!!
