BBS 18" RC Staggered Wheels & Tires 8.5"s & 10"s For 129 SL & 500E

Wheels with Pilot Sports on them 245/40 fronts, 285/35 rears.

These are the same wheels & tires that Hatch have on their 6 speed 500E car.

These are light weight BBS RC 18" rims, 8.5" fronts, 10" rears. Fronts weigh 19lbs , rears 19.5lbs that Renntech used in the '90s. The rears are hard to find.

Offsets are 32mm front and 25 mm rears. I do have the BBS spacers if necessary to reduce them to 18mm front and 15mm rear, will only fit a 500E or a 129 SL.

These are not perfect, and have some curb rash, but nothing too major.

$1800 for the wheels & tires, $1500 wheels alone, plus shipping

Thats not my car in the picture. Its a Renntech 600E with a 6 speed manual conversion at Hatch & Sons. But it has 14" Alcon 6 piston brakes

My car is a Renntech E60RS, I have Alcon 6 piston 14.5" brakes on my car. My car originally came with the BBS's but I went with Monolites, I prefer the look.

My car & my front brakes are in the attached pictures

Uhhh, actually RS II's

It's usually a good thing if you know what it is you're actually selling.

Assuming the wheels pictured in the original post are the ones you're selling, they are BBS RS II's, not RC's, and the weighst you've listed for them are wrong, too. They weigh more than what you've stated. Still are nice wheels, though. GL with your sale.

Are the RS II's not a 2 piece wheel? Mine are definitely a 1 piece. Although you have got me thinking, I don't actually know where I got the "RC" info from. Maybe from Renntech? I can't remember. I have had these 4 years same as my car. Would there not be a part number or something on the wheels?

Here is a post from early 2008 when I had some track tires on them, but there are pictures of my actual wheels in this post (how do I copy a picture from one post to another?)

I only referred to the wheels on the Renntech 600E in the original picture as they look just like my wheels & I don't have any pictures of my wheels on a car.

I get it now. The first pic you posted wasn't the wheels you're selling. Those wheels are RS II's. The wheels in the pic you linked to are RCs. Sorry for the confusion.
