Default BBS wheel halves wanted...

Need four 2 1/2'' outers or 7'' inners for 18'' BBS magnesium centered wheels.

Will have 2'' outers or 6 1/2'' inners to sell/trade depending on what I can get.

You can also have Kodiak wheels, Bogart wheels, or a few others make them. I prefer Kodiak wheels in Canada. Their halves are 6061-T6 rather than most other's 5052 material.

I've got a WTB thread going there, but I'll check on the guy. Thanks.

Thanks shifter. I can get a used one (hopefully) for about $130 and have my old ones to trade in, so I need to stick with the BBS halves. Kodiak aren't running for that much are they?

The last Kodiak halves I bought were about $150. It's my understanding that many high dollar manufacturers use their halves.

Don't forget that over the years BBS made several different thickness rim halves 3, 4, 5mm and they have also revised centers along the way to accept the thicker rim halves. You need to get the right length bolts.

Hey Jim,

Our rim halves will fit a BBS Center. Give me a call.
