17x7 REAL BBS RG-R

Category: Wheels & Tires
Price: $800
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R50, R52, R53, R55, R56
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

The BBS RG-R wheels are a One Piece Die Forged Aluminum Wheel with weight optimized by FEM analysis, available in your choice of Diamond Silver, or Diamond Black colors.

Wheel Specs: 17x7 / 4x100 / 38 Offset

These wheels were Diamond Black originally but recently powder coated bright silver.

Wheel are in excellent shape, but one has a slight imperfection in the lip; see the fifth picture, by the valve stem.

Price is $800 plus shipping and paypal. Wheels were $2620 new.

The tires are 205/45/17 Bridgestone Re760. Two are 7/32", two are 3/32". I would prefer to ship with the tires because it will help protect the wheels.

Wheels are awesome! Hold air, balance out excellent and look amazing! I'm only selling because I drive ALOT and parallel park about 15 times a day, therefor I have no need for these super nice wheels.

I would consider a small bend an imperfection (not perfect), but in the petanic sense you're also correct. I highlighted it, put a picture up and brought attention to it.

It holds air and balances perfectly. I'm sure you are very interested, and that's why your commenting. Please feel free to make me an offer, thanks!

What do they cost now? Is it the 800 they are listed for now, or are they less?

If I were you, I would fix the damage and list it for $1200 again.

These do have buyers but with a bent rim, its difficult to attract them.

Free bump for you tho!

You guys are nuts to nit-pick these wheels at that price... These are off of my old car. It was $500 just to blast / powdercoat them, and the wheels themselves are $670 EACH, new. That tiny bend has been there for 5 years and never leaked or caused even the slightest vibration.

Here is the actual powder used on them:

Bump for a good deal and good dude.
