BBS wheels for $1300, scam?
Whats up!

In the market for wheels. Just window shopping on eBay and stumbled across this.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/19-INCH-BBS-...#ht_500wt_1414

$1300 BBS wheels, no tires. Seems fishy. You guys think it's a scam?

Just saw that. And did not realize BBS are $4000+. Probably a scam. I got lots of looking to do.

from wat i know its not a scam its more like he just want to sell it and pricing is due to the damges reguarding the curb rashes...and there are a whole bunch of them. get something new and legit worth the money. Then i could be wrong. with zero feedback it wouldnt risk it.

Some Audi/VW guys run wobble bolts if I'm not mistaken, which may allow for them to still be 5x114.3.

Either way, the seller can verify this by removing the wheels and looking on the back side.
