  • NE1 deal w/VRwheels?

    With over 15 years of skill and experience of rebuilding and refinishing in the used wheels market, we are the wheel specialists. Check out our inventory of wheels updated daily! We are also the largest distributor of 3 piece wheel parts (lips and barrels) with thousands of parts in stock and ready to ship!



    I bought a BBS RS 16->17 double step package (lips and barrels from them).

    The lips don't fit my centers (RS005). See pic. Need about 2mm more for them to fit. I'm not about to GRIND DOWN my centers.

    They won't return my calls, answer emails, yet they're active on Facebook always posting new "stories."

    Scumbags.

    Don't buy anything from these jerks.

      Well...I finally got them to fit.

      I had to heat up the lips in an oven, and pound them on.

      Maybe I guess that's how they normally fit???

        That doesn't sound normal. I've gotten 16 to 18 lips for RS' previously and I definitely didn't need to heat them up

        Glad you got them on though, pictures when they're sealed and tires mounted!

              That doenst sound healthy. Should just fit, maybe just slightly snug (Had that happen to my RF's because of the paint) but not more than that.
              Hope there isnt to much tension in the material now..
