Set of four 14" BBS RZ wheels (as released from the factory on the '92 C-package and the famous '93 LE) with four tires. Best part? $175 for the whole damn lot.

There's a couple catches: These wheels are rough in the cosmetic department (curbrash, etc). No center caps. The four tires are three different kinds and one of them has a nail in it (aka the good ones will be hooned to a quick death and then I'll have to go tire shopping).

Regardless—truly incredible price for these wonderful wheels. Double what I paid would be a good price; I'm still in disbelief I nabbed them for 175.

Also neat, the guy I bought them from was the coolest guy. He and his dad had two NA's (one with a 302 nestled in the engine bay), two old Mustangs, and a Bronco. We were talking about the Miata reveal from yesterday and all that. Jalops everywhere, man.

p.s. - your move, YSI

Damn you! You bought wheels before me, and I have been planning on doing it for nearly a year and a half! But you can't beat that price, particularly for BBS wheels. Why did you buy them though, are they an extra set for a set of race tires? That would be awesome!

Haha, must be infuriating. I bought these simply because I've always admired them and happened to find a set for an illegally low price. I'm going to DD them for a while since I'm not currently involved in any motorsports, but these are my go-to's if I ever jump into that world. 4x100 fits a lot of cars and I've always loved these wheels and am proud to finally be an owner! I shall cherish them

That's awesome. I've been looking for some 14s with 4x100. Last year I picked up a set of mint e21 turbines with chrome lugs, center caps, and shipping for $155. Unfortunately, 13" tires are getting harder to find.

It's a 4300, maybe three years old, with a far nicer Fox fork installed. I'll grab you a pic but it'll take a little while; I'm about to leave on a two day trip as we speak lol

Yes. All BMW 4lugs are 4x100, except for maybe the 700
