Well, the Winter is around the corner. I took the wheels off the car last nite and see if there's any interest.
They are 19" BBS LM, gun metal center sections, and polish step lips. Fronts are 19x9 with +32 offset, rears are 19x10 with +38 offset. They were built for my E55. Were on my car for about a month. Wheels are perfect with no curb rash, no bend, some very minor scratches from mounted tires. Tires are Dunlop 245/35/19 fronts and 275/30/19 rears, they are less than a thousand miles old. Asking price is $3500 plus shipping fee. Thanks for looking.






Sorry for the crappy iphone pictures. One of the valve stem leaked so it was replaced with the normal one.

I'm in Columbus, Ohio. Tires are Dunlop Direzza Sport (I think). I'll check the tires again tonite just to be sure.

Tires are Dunlop direzza DZ101

any interest in wheels alone? I've had the DZ101's before and would pass on them

Got some new pictures

these are OEM from BBS or have they been refinished? they look significantly darker than the set I had on my last car (in diamond black).

Beautiful car and great wheel choice! I would definitely want to go back to whoever put the tires on and smack them 3 times across the dome though! Poor workmanship and lack of respect to have put that many scratches on brand new wheels.

One question though... why is it that the fronts have the "standard" lip and the rears are rolled? Personal preference when you bought/ordered them? Or did you not have a choice..?

I have a wheel shop built them for me, so yes, the color is not BBS.

Thanks for the compliments. And yes, I have the wheel shop built them that way. The road here in Columbus can be very bad, especially righ after the winter time. I've ruined a set of 20" rims because of pot-holes before. So the shop recomended the rolled lip for the rear because they are twice as strong as the standard lip.

When were the rims first built? Did you order them brand new from BBS through your local rep??? If yes, then why the different valve stem? If one leaked, why wouldn't BBS take care of it for you? Also, why not just order the bespoke color from BBS? Are they painted or powder coated? Why only do two of the rims with the twice as strong stepped lips? What about the fronts?

I received the wheels back in mid-late September.

I have a wheel shop built them for me. So no, the wheels were not brand new. But they were broken down, cleaned, and built to my car spec. They were brand new as far as I concern.

As far as the valve stem go, I waited about three months for the wheels to be built. The valve stem was the last minute problem and I just didn't want to wait any longer. I am sure that if I want to, the shop will replace the valve stem for me.

The center faces color were powder coated. I wanted that color.

The rear wheels are three piece so the lips were able to switch out. The front wheels are two piece so the lips can't be switch out (the whole barrel can).

Any more questions?

hey, is the wheels still up for sell?
