Thanks...when I started researching this I saw those and they led me to another eBay item that seems to have disappeared which was a set of the exact same wheels, but in silver. They were being sold by a 911 owner who had changed them out. He had pix of the back sides with the model number, sizes, etc. That led to a phone call to BBS in Georgia and talk with a great guy there--Michael--who has been around a long time and new all about the wheels. This Internet thing is amazing--the amount of stuff you can learn fairly quickly boggles the mind!

I just picked up the car from my mechanic. I had the timing and balance shaft belts replaced, just to be safe and a tune-up, compression test and some minor adjustments. Next it's off to have the undercarriage steam cleaned and then to the *best* detail shop in L.A. By the time the German Autofest rolls around it should be looking pretty close to showroom condition.

They were not a a factory option. Those wheels were very popular (and expensive) here in europe.They were also very high quality wheels, like BBS still are.I bought a set of new RS wheels back in 1989 to my new E30 bodied BMW.Those wheels had silver center part.I still have a BBS 1989 catalog where are 944 n/a and 930 with these wheels.

Ok gang, here's the pieces parts I have from my 16" BBS RS wheels. The BBS caps are a little faded (better than they look in the pics) but quite legible and the gold basket weave centers just need a little cleaning.

Part #'s are:
Outer gold center 09.24.028
Inner 'bolt' 09.24.013
BBS center cap 09.24.036

I'll sell each of the individual pieces for $9.44/each + $3.00 shipping if anyone is interested.
