hi guys and girls how much r 5 bbs 15"'s worth with 4 rufurbed with nearly new tyres and only very minor scuffs hardly noticable but only 3 caps that need colour coding to the wheels? ideas??????????????

tyre make/model/size?

are they stamped BBS?

[chieftouring]

yes bbs delfin rotational tyres 205/55/15 original size as fitted in the factory

[orangecurry]

as with all things in life, something is worth what someone is prepared to pay for it

5 BBS with good tyres and if looking good in a picture go for 200-250 on Ebay if you had 4 matching caps.

e.g. watch these

and see what they go for

the set im looking at r in much better condition than that hardly noticable scuffs on the edges only with new condition tyres as well?

[orangecurry]

oh you mean these are not yours? You want to buy them? Right I see.

IMHO think about
why do the caps need colour matching? Sounds like a home-made refurb job? Have you seen the wheels? Is there a receipt for the work done? Look at the manufacturer markings on the wheels. BBS, BMW, Made in Germany? Year stamps? say 90 in a circle; do all 5 wheels have the same markings?

I've never heard of Delfin tyres (and I've tried out most of the better known brands) - BEWARE; just cos something is new doesn't mean it is any good; is there a receipt for the tyres?

I've got some newish Dark Horse tyres as part of a cheap set of 15s; they are lethal in the wet

if it doesn't add-up, walk away. There'll be another set along in a minute.
The last thing you want is to spin off into the undergrowth after parting with your hard-earned.

the tyres r sweet my m8 had the same on his 2 5 sport 50 notes each pretty good i've seen the wheels and theyre agood refurb the 3 caps dont match cos they got chaved by a thieving chav he he! not sure about the markings but once the caps r on it dont matter y do people worry so much about the markins all matching anyway?

[orangecurry]

I didn't mean the markings had to match - just check that all 5 wheels are O/E BBS that's all; make sure there isn't a cheap copy hidden at the back!

The weight of copies is much greater, and the strength is much less

200 quid. Roughly.
