NE1 have pics of BBS RK's?

[JackH]

I'm down to a couple of different wheel styles and was wondering if anyone had pictures of the RK you could post or email to me. Going with RE730 tires.

Thanks.

here are some pics of a bunch of the guys rides w/RKs....i LOVE em....first 2 are 17's...last one is 18's:



actually....couldn't find a pic of Chris Conner's black 4 dr with the 18's....looks sweet though....u get the point =)

Thanks guys, I think I'm sold, especially considering they only weigh 16 lbs. as compared with about 25 lbs. for the others I was considering.

If you like the RK style and light weight, check out the new OZ Superleggeras. 17" weighs in at 7kg (about 15.4 lb). Here's a pic:



...faked on my car:



I should be getting my set in a few weeks (can't wait!) as they were just released.

Good choice of tires.... good thing u didn't make the mistake of goin' with pirellis as the first set of tires for ur rims... many have made that mistake.... including me.

Very nice choice.

I have heard the sidewalls start to crack.

Eurospeed, regarding the OZs: Is the 17 lbs for the 18 x 8s??

Thanks.

Oops, that should have read:

What is the weight of the 18 x 8s?? Tirerack only sells the 18 x 8s. Where did you get the 17s??

The 17s should have been available by now, but OZ is encountering delays which may push shipments back another 6-8 weeks. I've been waiting since January for the 17x8s. The 18s weigh (according to OZ) 8kg, roughly 17.6 lb.

Do you have a website with the specs on the OZ wheel weights?? I like the 17s at 15lbs. Where did you order them from? I want a set now.

Thanks.

Here's the web page:

I ordered them from Eric @ SPP...tell him I referred you. One word of caution though, an exact date of arrival is unknown so we may be in for a very long wait.

Hey Eurospeed - please post some pics when you get them on your car.

Do you mind me asking what they ended up running you price wise?

Do they make them in anything wider than 17x8? i.e. 8.5s or 9s?

Thanks

I'm not sure because the price was based on a complete package, but each wheel was roughly $270. The Tirerack wants $280 for the 17s. I believe 8" is the widest for 17" at the time being, but I wouldn't be surprised if OZ expands the options in the future.
