Default BBS Lightweight Alloys 5x100 Fitment







A set of BBS 5x100 PCD 17" lightweight alloys in excellent condition which are shod with Goodyear Efficient Grip 225/45/17 tyres with plenty of tread remaining.

These are getting rarer by the day and these wheels have no curbing marks, scratches, dents or dings on them anywhere.

These are about one of the lightest wheels possible and will fit all classic models, all newage WRX models and newage STi models until the widetrack Blobeye STi.

I am asking for £700 inc delivery to mainland UK, I can ship further afield but this is subject to a shipping quote. This is a considerable saving on the new price from the likes of japanparts.com if they can still source them.

Hi bud,

Do you fancy swapping these for a set of mint (and I mean mint) 18"pro race 1.2's, all with almost brand new Falkens?

Stange as this might sound I'd consider a swap with a good condition twin scroll turbo such as a VF36/37/42 or 49.

Hi, what width and offset are these? Apart from the different pcd, do you know how these relate design wise to the 2005 sti wheels?
Cheers

These are 7.5J wide, as for the offset I'm not sure if I'm honest.

Design wise they are totally different to the standard 2005 Enkei STi wheels, these are about the best wheels available from the factory options list.

Not being big headed but you cannot compare these to standard wheels fitted to an STi.

These BBS wheels are available in both 5x100 and 5x114.3 PCD sizes, the later type being an 8J width in place of the 7.5J width of the earlier wheel.

In fact I'm probably going to keep them as the AP brakes are staying on the car there is no need to sell them, unless someone offers me what I want for them.

Yes indeed Gaz! They look great on your car too!

I'm tempted to get a set sent over from the US, and I'm also tempted by the above. But not sure I can justify £700 on a set of wheels I already own

These wheels are in all probability no longer for sale, the only reason I put them up for sale was because I was going to replace the AP 330mm 6 pot brakes with K Sport 356mm 8 pot brakes which wouldn't clear the BBS wheels.

I searched for these wheels for about 2 years before finding this set in a shocking condition which I then had refurbished back to better than new.

Before the summer is out I will have a set of PFF7's which will be refurbished and then become my winter wheels meaning that the BBS wheels will see even less use.

These have to be along with the Ray's S202 wheels about the best wheels available.

That's a great list! Shame they are missing a few EDM wheels.
