Hello,

Do you guys know if anyone would consider running a group buy on BBS wheels? Are the margins slim on these to the point at which a GB becomes unfeasible? I am really just looking to find these at a price that meets my budget. $540 from tirerack is a lot for me to absorb right now. If it were closer to $500 I may be able to pull it off with the sale of the stock 10 spokes on eBay.

The RG-R's look incredible and the gunmetal finish on a silver M3 would drastically improve the aesthetics of the car (IMO).

Yes, please post those pics when you can, and plenty of them too! I'm really eager to see how they'd look on a silver E36.

M34Fun> Sounds great, originally I wanted the RS-GT's but downgraded to the RG-R's because I couldn't see myself coming up with $3k anytime soon.

I also would love to see the pics as soon as you get them on.

Well, it doesn't look like there is enough interest to generate any kind of group buy. I though more people would be up for some BBW wheels, but I guess not.

ALI> Thanks for the ebay reference, I'll check it out.

why is the RSGT higher in price if the RG-R is a lighter wheel?
Is it just because it is multipiece?

OOPS sorry for the typo, that should have read "BBS" not "BBW" of course.

m3jon> I was wondering the same thing.

The RS-GT is more money because it is a multi piece wheel. It just cost more to produce the wheel. Both the RG-R and RS-GT are forged wheels though.
