Default RARE DEAL on BBS wheels for IWSTI members

Vendors cannot post in these forums, but this has been approved by Ben, the admin:

This is a deal being extended to IWSTI members not offered through a Subaru vendor who would normally advertise on the site. It is an offer that was extended simply because of our personal relationship with them.

I was told quantities are limited and based on a first come first serve basis.

30% off the following wheels:

BBS RGR 17x7.5
Retail: $660
Your price: $462

BBS RGR 18x7.5
Retail: $760
Your price: $532

BBS RE 18x8
Retail: $770
Your price: $539

All forged, top notch wheels. They come with the same accessories as they would had you purchased them retail.

Only if you are SERIOUSLY interested, send me a PM with your phone number and name along with the wheel and specific sizes. I truly do not know how long this offer will be open because he said the quantities were extremely limited.

Just updated the post with the discount pricing. (So people wouldn't have to get a calculator and do the math)

Whatever they offer. That information was not specifically provided, but at the time every offset was available. You can check out tirerack for more information.

It is per wheel. BBS wheels normally go for $2400+ per set at the retail level. This is a substantial discount that I cannot imagine you will ever see again.

I found a few pages from BBS japan regarding some of their sizes/offsets
http://www.bbs-japan.co.jp/index.html
Go to products and there is a listing of wheels, sizes and offsets.

I'd really love the RGR in a 17 but I'd rather not go to a 7.5"(but would consider it) width and not sure which offsets would work that are in 5x114.3.

Can you guys get a list of exactly what sizes are available to fit STi's with the offsets? I'm interested in 17" RGR's.

I was posting this up as a courtesy to IWSTI members, but here is what I could find:

BBS REs
+50mm in 18x8 for 5x100 (04 models)
+40mm in 18x8 for 5x114.3 (05 & 06+ models)

BBS RGR
+50 and +45 in 18x7.5 for 5x114.3 (05 & 06+ models)
+49 in 18x7.5 for 5x100 (04 models)

In 17x7.5, these offsets are available for 5x114.3 (05 & 06+ models): 45,48,35,38
In 17x7.5, these offsets are available for 5x100 (04 models): 35,48
