I know this is crazy random but I have been trying to ID these rims for weeks now. I am building a notchback and would like to know who makes the rims. The OP has not been active on the forum since 2016. I did PM him and didn't get a response.
Any help identifying the make and model of the rims would be appreciated. |

Look very similar to my remotec A’s / Borbet B’s I have on my Notch, just without the rim bolts.
Search lenso wheels. They would have a similar style wheels in various sizes and could drill them to 4x130.
That’s a good looking Fastback. |

I appreciate the input, thank you! It is a good looking stance, which is why I am trying to replicate it.
Thanks again. |

They are 2pc 17" BBS E39 style 5's or BBS RC090 off of a late 90s BMW540i. I have seen them for around 400.00 on offer up. The fronts were narrowed to tuck. The fastback has (I think) a 1.8l Jetta/golf motor. The owner I think worked for the Beetle barn here in Las Vegas NV. _________________ "What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: 'tis dearness only that gives everything its value.
