BBS/Speedline 19" splitrims

[gynads]

Been looking for wheels for ages now, sick to death of looking! wanted LM's but reps seem toss. Settled for CK's as they look really nice, but been done to death for the money they cost. I have been offered a set of the above wheels BBS/speedlines gen Audi, without tyres for £540 delivered. Seen a few on S3's and think they will suit my Sprint blue

Does this seem like a reasonable price?

EDIT: just double checked and the advert says Sline style , are these reps? (click link below)

Yep they are reps.... Can get originals one for not a massive increase in price.

Lovely wheels imo...

youll have to find a set of tyres for those ones though! 255's and 2mm tread left..

 

[edition]

I would ring some scrap yards....... I'm sure you could get some cheaper than both that have been posted.

 

[gynads]

Yeah I'll try edition, they do seem a bit steep.

[N8]

Hes relisted them.

 

[Smoothie]

im looking a set of these as well, without tyres preferably

 

[Lee_R]

Best wheels for an A3 I reckon. Pain in the backside to keep clean though, take ages to do round the bolts etc

 

[Smoothie]

yea not to many sets over here, hence my interest

 

[Kriminal]

I'll be looking to sell mine in about six months time (when I've got my feet under the new desk of my new job at veedub).

To be honest ?....they are a pain in the butt to keep clean, as Lee_R has said. But they do look okay <hovering hand>....nothing spectacular in my opinion, but okay.

 

[Smoothie]

i really like them in the 19" just noticed there some are ET48 and some ET43, would it be worth looking for the ET48 ones? less rubbing issues?

 

[N8]

You need to go 215 on ET48 or 43 to avoid rubbing issues, AS I keep telling you

yea mate i was just checking if their were the same issues with ET48 as with ET43

 

[N8]

Yes you will have issues, listen to me and you'll be fine.

 

[Smoothie]

Yes you will have issues, listen to me and you'll be fine.

lol i intend to mate don't worry

 

[N8]

Good lad smoothie, Irish ftw.

now get some pics up to convince me i want these rims lol

 

[N8]

You car is red, and you've got Black grille. So you could go black/red? Or all black?

 

[Smoothie]

jesus that caddy is bad ***

 

[b19ctr]

yeah there's a pair of those caddy's rocking BBS 19s the other ones white they look awesome in the flesh!

 

[N8]

Theres loads of caddys rockin splits now.

 

[Kriminal]

^^ are those lips on the Speedlines polished ?.....it does make the wheel more 'interesting' in my opinion. You've started me wondering whether I should get rid off mine next Year, or simply get them resprayed. If I do get them resprayed, the next question would be 'what would look good on a Red Sportback ?'

 

[N8]

They're just highly polished yes, but both sets are 19"s there dude.

 

[Kriminal]

They're just highly polished yes, but both sets are 19"s there dude.

Aha, I see. I'm not sure whether I could go to 19's on mine to be honest....I'd still like to keep my spinal cord...lol

 

[N8]

Your preconceptions of 19"s are all wrong my friend, I'll take you out in my car, and you'll be pleasantly suprised.

 

[Kriminal]

You're probably right. It would seem weird though changing from Speedline 18's to Speedline 19's

 

[b19ctr]

I've got 18" and 19" speedlines although i am tempted to sell the 18" and get something thats not a split rim for daily driving

 

[N8]

Sounds like a good move, ask your wife, love "does an inch make all that much difference"
