scotty_82 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BBS-SPLIT-RIM-REPS-WITH-TYRES-/280907257163?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item416760954b#ht_500wt_1091Please say thats a typo and the user is only after £57 quid.Im sure even after the finance, reps with tyres come in at less than that, ffs its real bbs money for something that is probably made in a far eastern country using faux metal by kids paid in sweet wrappers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fob163 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 tbf, some of them are diamond cut, which is kindof a bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty_82 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) How, diamond cut shouldn't be laquered so will corrode, if it is laquered then you will end up with it looking creamyAnd diamond cut **** quality metal is in no way beneficial to anyone Edited June 26, 2012 by scotty_82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fob163 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 so reals are alot better most of the time, but if i had the choice between a real pair thats in bad condition, or for the same price get brand new reps WITH tyres, id go for that. getting stuff refurbed properly is just too expensive. but i see your point, i'd love real ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadmetal Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 If a set of cheapy, in need of a refurb Work Equip 03 (what my wheels are reps of) came up in the sizes and specs I want for £600 I'd bite the sellers arm off.Selling rep that have been fitted to a car, no matter what the ad says, for that price is mental.Brand new Lensos cost less than £400, hell you can get brand new Ronals for less than the reps this guy is selling.

heartagram Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I don't understand why you would pay that much for replica wheels when the real things can be bought for the same sort of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I don't understand why you would pay that much for replica wheels when the real things can be bought for the same sort of money.+1both sets of my bbs came in at less than 500 together! they both need/ needed a refurb but that wasn't really a problem.
