BBS RA/Mahle 16 in / what are they worth?

[JE BMW]

Just wanted some opinions. Looking at a staggered set 16x7 and 16x8.
Wondering what the prince range would be on these.
Theyre not refinished yet, just stripped, i plan on polishing the lip, painting the centers gold or silver.
Thanks for your time.

[JE BMW]

Well this is what they look like,
all are stripped,
Sanded the lip of one tonight and polished it.
ill do the others soon along with a silver spray

[JE BMW]

ok so..we ended up getting them, 2 were slightly bent so at the shop right now to get fixed
Had some free time so ended up polishing the lip and spraying the center of one bronze, came out nice..

[JE BMW]

no one knows?? theyre that rare?? ha

Seen them priced from 200$ to 500$ with original centercaps...
Maybe 350 is a realistic price for yours...
Are they RA005 and RA006?
If so they are factory e28 M5 rims.

[JE BMW]

really? even after theyre repaired, i polish the lips and paint the centers,,, only 350? theres no center caps though. Those things are 100 bucks on ebay, from Hungary. pretty rare..

And im not sure both fronts are stamped bbs w germany. both 16x7 et 11
One back is stamped Just bbs and other has bbs and mahle stamped.
both backs are exactly the same, but i guess the mahle one was made before 1980..

i think the fronts are bbs ra 222 and backs are bbs ra 223

damn photobucket.

Could be true, no expert here...
Found a set for only 160$ -->e28 M5 rims
depends on the guy who buys them...
Maybe you can get the centercaps cnc-machined... if
someone can measure them for you...

[JE BMW]

Oh i see. thats a good price... these came from a 5 series, think e28.
All i know is theyre kinda rare and hellla light , been looking and all i can find is old a$$ pages of people selling them for 500/600 but notn recent. So i thought id ask here.
Gonna post them when i get them back from the shop once theyre true and see if i can get offers.

[JE BMW]

anyone else?

[sacrifice]

Few hundred to the right person.

[JE BMW]

Anyone??

btw all lips were wet sanded tuesday and today, all centers were painted.
heres a few pics of 2 that are polished and done. other 2 will get polished tomorrow.

Im thinking about keeping them..

[sacrifice]

Stop asking. They are a mediocre wheel with poor specs.

[RubbderDucky]

$3,000. Let em talk you down some.

You've been told. Multiple times. If you got $300 for them, consider yourself lucky.

If you want to keep them, then keep them. You don't need to announce it.

[JE BMW]

have you read the whole thing?Someone said 350, but he wasnt sure. other said few hundred. Thats not very specific. im looking for someone that actually knows since i ouldnt find that much info, other than 2 sets from germany for 1500 bucks with same specs. I know im not gonna get that much if i post them for sale, Thats why i thought id ask here first,, but sheesh

And i said i might end up keeping them because theyre comin out great and i think they would look nice on my car.
