FS: 18 chrome BBS RX 18 x 8 et 32 5x 112

Anyone interested? They are insanely sexy rims and in great condition. They have the same exact pattern as RS-GT's and RG-R which are over 5k. They weigh 24.3lbs in chrome! They come with carbon center caps and bbs valve caps. They do not include tires.

I bought them for another application but am not going to use them. Make me an offer via pm thanks.

They're in San Diego, CA

What's the 4matic about because they're all 8"?? You can put them on whatever it doesn't have to be 4wd.

Quite some time ago, I think. The reason I am aware of this was because I am the new owner of one of John's old front wheels. I've had it in my possession for a couple of months and he got rid of it because it was taking up space in his garage for too long. The point to note when de-staggering is this: don't keep the original 225's up front. The rims will stick out way too far. Yikes, mega curb rash potential.

Check out the C32 forum. I think it was Fifth Ring that was the first to post about the de-stagger. He found it was great for tracking the car.

john does have 225 up front tho.

you can run 18x8 all around. it's not an issue. just run a 10mm spacer in the rear if you want to have the more aggressive look.

Yes, I know John as the 225's up front. That is why I made the suggestion. Some people like to drive by braille and the skinny rubber ends up being protected by the shiny rims. 'Nuff said.
