Default BBS E88 assistance needed

I have a 99 996 NB and bought a set of used E88 but tuns out they were NOT as posted
so does anyone have the correct specs I would need as well as designation numbers
I want to be not as aggressive in width sizing happy with 996.1 GT3 numbers
I already have a set of 996.1 gt3 rims I would only change rear width plus a 1/2 inch
also it seems that Bbs has put a halt on new orders for 10 months

What do you have now? List of the centers, barrels, and lips. And maybe what your target is.

I think the ones with the BBS stamped on the face are mag, I know the 0228291 is - There are precautions you will want to take with the mag wheels. Worth a google.

Me too I guess honesty isn’t the best these days but I did get refunded a big chunk back so it’s worth it after I rebuild them

Nothing the set wasn’t pristine as I would’ve like but it’s all there
just need to rebuild them and paint so I need new seals and bolts
but I did get a set of Pirelli sticker slicks and a big price cut
thanks bro the 911 passion continues
