    Default After all my bad luck.. broken rim. Help?

    Help me to find a place where I can buy one of the exact same rims i have.

    They are 17" BBS 10 spoke
    On the rim (they are BBS) it says:

    ET15 RK 003
    81/2J x 17H2
    MAX 7000N

    This is a great thing to happen after clutch/flywheel, friends dad backing into me, and a valve on the intake manifold blowing.

    Default Google search...

    Those are BBS RK's. There were a few on Ebay tonight. I'd do a Google search for "BBS RK" and see what comes up. Shouldn't be too hard to find a replacement.

    Grace and peace,

    They might be difficult to source as they are discontinued. Sorry, I am looking for a rim as well.

    You sure it's not repairable?

    Those are VERY nice wheels.

    Bent wheel where it seals to tire & cracked down the middle at least 8"
    I'm pretty sure that can't be welded?

    ...ouch, that absolutely sucks.

    If they're truly discontinued, you better get them from that site before they're gone.

    I get paid thursday.... I'll have the money.
    Wow.
    It seems every time I almost get some money to do something to my bimmer, something else goes wrong.
    Sigh.
    Oh well.
    Maybe I'll sell my current BBS RK'S With the low-profile tires that are at least 50-75% tread left and get something like http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-BM...QQcmdZViewItem

    hmm

    BY the way, you probably want ET15 offset. So that link above won't work.
