Default Might sell my BBS RC 17x8 rims... anyone interested?
Just wondering if there is a market for them around here. I'd most likely replace them with 18x8.5 rims of the same model. Haven't completely decided whether I want to do this yet, so I figured I'd post here and test the waters for interest.

I am for sure, what kind of condition are they in and how much are you looking for?

Default Ah, you have the polished? Any closer pics?
I am debating between painted and polished. I definitely don't want a chrome look, so I was hesitant to get polished rims.

Default Perfect condition. No scratches.
I'm always really paranoid while parallel parking, so no worries there. Not sure on the price. Since they are in perfect condition, I was hoping not to go *too* much lower than new price, although I will drop it a bit.

Default Also, have you rolled your fenders to prevent rubbing?
Most of the people I've talked to have said you need to roll the fenders to allow for the 8.5" rim.

I think I'm going to look at 5 spokes - thanks for the info though.

Are cheaper Rims significantly heavier in general than the more expensive ones, like BBS?
