    Just curious what are the gold bbs rims worth? Without tires in greasy condition anyone have an idea?

    Define "greasy condition."

    Condition? Pics? Probably anywhere from $500-$1,000 depending on condition.

    The 5x100 bolt pattern on the BBS was only around for 1 year(2004). I believe that Silver are the most sought after, but the gold ones would still have some value. I would guess that they'd sell pretty easy for $800.

    Really I thought the gold would be more popular.

    Negative. The gold doesn't work as good with all of the colors as the silver does. But as stated, i doubt that you'd get much more if they were silver. With some good tires you could probably get $1,200-ish.

    Well $900 isn't a bad price if they're all in good shape. Most that i've just seen with a quick google search are at $1,200 or so.

    Even if the helping is followed by an uncomfortably long hug.

    It's only uncomfortable if we make contact below the waist.

    Depends what you mean, from my understanding it fits. However the wiring needs modified in order to work on a WRX.

    Nope. Ask JasonOjordan about his. Definitely not plug and play.

    Gold are definitely harder to find from what I've seen. I sold mine for $1200 + actual shipping. They were in great condition and had some worn Star Specs on them.

    Should fit just fine, pending suspension mods and tire size you might need to roll the rear fenders.

    Because a bunch of ****ing idiots with a 5x100 subaru paid way too much money for oem 04 sti wheels, now everyone who has a set continues to ask assrape prices and get away with it because people still throw their money away to get them.

    Ya, but honestly, oem s13 wheels look like crap. Much better options to buy for a 240.

    04 STi BBS look good, light and strong, "rare", clear brembos.... Most importantly they can make any WRX look like an STi ;)
