I don't think that they are a BMW product. I know that they were a big favorite for Japanese enthusiasts. They're rare enough, and those are pretty pimp. Cody done himself good.


Does he have Rabbit project ideas? Or was he just grabbing things for the rally car?

Yea, Cody made a good haul, especially for free.

He was mainly just thinking of the Rallycar.

Not sure what they are going to be used on at this point, we're arguing over who gets them :) - he wants to sell them but I might trade him for the wheels I was going to use on the Rabbit which is currently at LCs house...  These ones:



...which he likes.  But painting/powder coating/polishing/cleaned looks like it'll be a spendy venture since the wheels have nicks all over the place and rumor has it, one wheel needs to be straightened...

Anyone know any wheel shops that are good around here (PNW)?

I know VW Audi people use them for a lot of things. Curb damage, fill and redrills, paint, restos, etc.... Hell, even Dan from Hillside (when he was still there) used them and he's a picky bastard!

Mine are all oxidized and shit, and someone stole the center caps. These are hubcentric.


You can tell this car hasn't been driven lately...


I have the full set. The center of that hub is the only real damage to any of them, aside from neglect.
