  • Advise needed - HUGE discovery of rare BBS

    Hi everyone,

    First post, sorry. I just don't know where to go to ask. I can imagine that you guys can help me better than any other forum out there. So let's come to the point ...

    I'm living in Switzerland, constantly keeping an eye open for some rare wheels. And I think today is something like Christmas for me, because I just visited a guy near my town who has his paint shop full of Rim Packages ... and this guy just wants to see them gone. He once got them in exchange because of someone who could not pay cash for his work ... atleast that's what he told me.

    Coming to the point. There are 34 packages. Each with a brand new, unused wheel inside.
    On each of the packages it either says "Pininfarina"or "Bugatti", and so seems the wheels. The wheels vary in bolt pattern (lots of 4x100, some 5x100, 5x112, 5x120) and in Size (lots of 15", some even in 17").

    They seem to be 2-piece and 1-piece, but I don't think any of those were 3-piece wheels.

    Some pictures:
    Single piece Pininfarina BBS 7,5x15" ET12


    Bugatti BBS 2-piece


    2-piece Pininfarina BBS 8x17"


    2-piece Pininfarina BBS 7x15" ET35


    As written above, there are 34 wheels in total, some of those wheels have multiple sets, some have different bolt patterns, every wheel is BRAND NEW and has never seen a car before, even the Lug Nuts are inside!

    He wants 1000 CHF for it (about 1100 USD) ... what do you guys think are these worth?

    Thanks,
    pr0xy

    its worth it. i would easily pay that much for a similar scenario. the wheels can be sold to the right buyer individually and even if at 100$ a piece (just a low pretend number), you have 3400$ or triple your investment

      Shouldn't even be a question at $1100.

            Honestly, I don't believe these wheels look that good. Also, since they are pretty unknown to the average wheel guy, I just wanted to be sure not to bury my ass in worthless metals

            @OrangeBlue: Reply on it's way!

                    This is not the classifieds.
                    Post in the appropriate section, include prices and pictures.
                    Make sure to include the PCD, widths, diameter, offset, make, and model of the wheel!
