Greetings, all, and Happy New Year--------=0D
=0D
I just received my shipment of 17 inch BBS RS 200 wheels from Germany.=20
These are the 1980s-vintage 3-piece "honeycomb" wheels with 34 bolts hold=
ing
the two flanges onto the central hub. I will be disassembling them to cl=
ean
them, repaint the centers and exchanging the inner flanges on one pair of
the wheels to make a "staggered" set for my 1990 560SEC Euro conversion
project.=0D
=0D
My questions: Does anybody know a source for the gaskets which go betwee=
n
the three pieces? What are the torque values for the bolts used to attac=
hed
the pieces together? Has anybody found an interest group, and are there =
any
directions for disassembly/reassembly? I've only seen one set in the
members' cars pictures. Who else has a set on their SEC?=0D
=0D
Thanks in advance.........Jim Rothrock, Windermere, Florida=0D
