Default BBS Wheels w/Hoosier tires

I've decided to no longer track my GT3 so I have up for sale my set of 9' and 11" BBS E88's shod with new Hoosier R7's.

Wheels have been professionally painted (not powder coated) and have offsets of ET50 front and ET55 rear.

Tires are: (F) 245/35/zr18 and (R) 315/30/zr18.

Asking $4500.00 OBO. located in central NJ. I'm willing to help with delivery up to 100 miles.

Thanks
Tom B.

I'm wondering if wheels would clear PCCB, and fit 997.1 turbo? In NNJ.

Thats because there are like 3 people on the planet that still drive their 997 GT cars... and I already have 2 sets of E88 but Mooty would say 3 min... i'm just not that nutty.

Anyway, did you have these on a 997? The rear offset is a little more aggressive than the normal narrow body spec of about 60-65. Fronts look fine.

Wheels look like a real nice set and would be interested but don't think orange wheels would look too good on a guards red car. Also, I'd want a 12" wide rear wheels, just a preference.

As for offset 18x11 +55 is actually identical to 18x12 +68, which is the .1 narrow body offset.

I like these wheels and re painting is easy enough. Isn't 18x11 55 the same as 18x12 61 and not 68? That's a half inch each side or about 6mm.

I suck at offset math.

What centers part #s are the front and rears? and which inner/outers? easy enough to change the rims...

I know someone who may be interested...

1 inch difference is wheel width is approximately a 12mm difference in offset. 6mm would be for .5 inch change in width.

Painting the wheels would be easy, unless your trying to match bbs gold, which is the color I'd go for.

This is why the wheels are orange and how they looked on my 997.1 GT3.

Thanks for your responses thus far.
