I was checking my 18'' BBS wheels for the next VIR event and found a crack. This is the second wheel I've found a crack on. The last one was just back in March.

Anybody have an 0228002 or a 0228041 wheel center?

a930rocket at Bellsouth.net or PM me.

Thanks,

Jim, how old are your wheels, and is it on the fronts or the backs?

10 GT3

What type of wheels? I have noticed that Fiske and Forgeline 2-piece commonly develop small cracks and start leaking in around 2 years. The 1-piece and 3-piece wheels don't have this issue, but the 3-piece wheels are supposed to be taken apart, reassembled and resealed every 2 years.

I bought them used from Bob Woodman about 4-5 years ago and rebuilt them last summer to make them wider. I called BBS Motorsports and they are pretty old according to them. I suppose I should update them to the new forged centers. Know where I can get them at a good price?

I'm using them on the front. My other set of fronts have a BBS part number of 0228041, so if anybody has that center, it will work.

If you remember, I had a cracked rear one just before the Zone 2 event at VIR.

They are 18'' BBS wheels and were rebuilt last summer or fall. There is an aluminum ring with a rubber bead between wheel halves that gets replaced along with new bolts.
