bbs wheels 9.5 x17 wanted


hi im new here, sorry my first post is in the wanted section.

ive had a nose around and im not sure what model car they are from think its posible they are from a c4 (may well be wrong)

im trying to find at least two of these wheels either in the uk or in the USA from a breaker/dismantler that will ship to the uk.

i need them because they are an od wheel that bbs made. they used a centre section normaly found in a 16" wheel and made the rim parts bigger.
bbs also did this on one other size (the ones ive got)

mine are 8.5 instead of 9.5 and mine are bmw fitment.
i want to make a stagered set 8.5/9.5.

i looked into having a split rim manufacturer image wheels, make me custom rim sections. they can do this but it would cost almost 700 pounds.

hence im here trying to find a pair/set of the 9.5 wheels used on your corvette's
(got to say they sound ace, saw a couple of mid 80's cars at a local show)

this is the wheel.

any help would be great!!!!!
thanks

I don't know whether you're aware of this, but technically the PCD of Corvette wheels isn't the same as BMW. They're pretty close apparently.
Jaguar is the same as Corvette so you may find luck on Jag forums too.
Good luck with it - welcome to the website. Smile

Re: bbs wheels 9.5 x17 wanted


ive been hunting, google searches etc and found a few sets for sale but none on this side of the world.

my problem is getting wheels from the USA without getting scammed.
