Default Custom BBS E88

Category: Accessories
Price (no $ sign please): $4200
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

I have a set of BBS e88s that I began rebuilding, but decided to go a different route.

They are currently configured as the following, from a GT3 cup car:

18x8.5" (120 BBS PN#)
ET38
1.5" outer
7" inner

18x11" (107 BBS PN#)
et63
2" outer
9" inner

They are at my wheel refinisher now, chemically stripped and ready to be powdercoated. It's up to the buyer what finish they want, but virtually any option is possible.

Priced at $4200 they will have polished outers and your choice of any color center. $200 extra gives you black barrels and $150 more any color or brushed finish halves. They'll be better than new when done.

I am willing to swap out halves at an additional cost depending on what inventory Bob Woodman has available.

What were you building them for?

Any chance to fitting them to a NB 964?

as-is, no

We could reconfigure them with new halves if you are interested in going that route. The original plan was to buy new halves and make them 19" for my 997, but it actually turns out that it's cheaper for me to just buy new e88s at that point.

BBS does not advise power coating on their wheels. It compromises the strength of the wheel.

All of there "colored" wheels are painted.

BBS also says that about their RS wheels and I don't think there has been a single failure of one of those in the 30+ years they've been around.

Its has been done countless times with their wheels- and for what it's worth my powdercoater uses a lower temp to cure the powder coat.

Would these fit a 993 Turbo? I don't think so but had to ask...such a beautiful set of wheels!

I am interested but would need 8X18 ET 30 and 9.5X18 ET 20 to fit 1975 Carrera. Any idea what the rim swap might cost?

The wheels can be configured in many different fitments, just ask away and I can help.
