Sometimes I wish I had disposable income for sets of wheels like these. Master pieces as per usual man!
I am guessing it's the end of an era for wheels being built by you?

Thanks!
Possibly the end of one stage and beginning of something a bit bigger

i havent been on here very much recently, but as an official "last call" i have the following sets complete and ready to ship out. this clears out my style 5 sets entirely and you wont see another bump from me to this thread. Ive built maybe 50 or so style 5 sets over the years, most 3 piece; this is the official end of that run. Listed are 3 different sets -a three piece, two piece, 1 piece. was done intentionally.
youll still see style 5 billet center cap kits out there from me (ones for rc090/061/063/043 etc and also 1 piece rz469), but no more style 5 wheel sets being rebuilt.
here goes
Set #1 - rc090 - 3 piece conversion 17x8.5/9.5
3 piece 17”x8.5 and 17x9.5 for a wide variety of cars. Very versatile sizes
These halves were built custom for this application to fit an e36 m3 and allow for a larger tire size but would fit many others as well. These are untouched since the work done to them and have been wrapped and stored in boxes for the past year or so in a climate controlled space.
5x120 bolt pattern
Faces powdercoated gloss gunmetal
spinfab billet waffle plates custom - makes the wheel look like a bbs rs
Center hex caps - mirror polished half height
BBS oem logos - either red/chrome or blue/chrome
Bolts triple chrome plated, lock nuts zinc plated
New forged lips polished 2” and 3”
New inner barrels powder coated satin black.
All of the parts above are brand new minus the original faces which were in amazing shape and refinished to perfection. the faces have all markings and have not been modified in any way.
3500 picked up, 3700 shipped inside the lower 48 states
Set #2. combo rc040/Rc090 2 piece 17x7.5/8.0
this set was just a refinish- faces are chemically stripped and are powdercoated in a bright gold similar to bbs gold. Barrels have been powdercoated/polished so as to be in better than factory condition. new assembly hardware, valves, Spinfab billet center cap kit just like the above.
The front wheels were built with the less common front barrels from rc040 to allow for fitment on many other cars as well as the use of a spacer in the case you need to clear a bbk. Rc090 are notorious for not having much of a pad on the face which doesn’t allow it to clear huge brakes, so this compensates for that if needed. the four faces are all rc090, and the rear barrels are rc090.
2500 picked up in New York, 2700 shipped in the lower 48 states
set #3 - 16" RZ469 16x8+20 5/7 series wheels. these were refinished and have one of the first billet centercap kits specific to this wheel. the parts are different than that of the 2 piece (waffles totally different pattern).
wheels powdered silver, billet waffles powdered silver, new metal valves, black/chrome logos inside of machined 1/2ht hex. Sold
pictures of all three sets this weekend. dont hesitate as this is a serious "last sets" post. I only have a few bbs motorsport sets left in my collection, the wheels from the fairlady, and that is it.
