Hi,
If you have these, can you tell me the measurement for the 20-bolt holes
on the halves? Preferably measure is across between 2 opposite holes.

Reason is I just got a bunch of parts of HRE wheels, and can barrels of BBS
interchange, or maybe that's what I already have.

I'm going to find halves that make up the right offset for me and sell off
the rest.

Thanks,
Mark S.

mskala, It looks to be 13-5/16". I don't know if your HRE wheel centers are interchangable with BBS halves, but BBS centers measure as close as I can tell is 14-1/8". Hope it helps you.

Thanks, but I don't understand your numbers. For BBS, which number is bolt-hole to opposite bolt-hole? I have to measure mine tonight, I have a bunch of un-assembled parts so it will be easy.

Thanks,
Mark S.

Ah, I think I get it. Your 13 5/8" is exactly what I have, using the outer edge of the holes. And the diameter of the HRE center itself is about 14 1/8". So HRE and BBS
parts should play well together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Thanks a lot

Hey Mark.

Nice score on the wheels. What are you putting together. Hopefully I will have my motor sorted by spring and I'll be around some.

Hi Kelly,
Always looking for newer/better/lighter wheels. If possible I'll set these up
as 16x7 with appropriate offset for stock-fender car, otherwise I'll maybe
sell them off.

If you can come up with a set of 16X8s and 9s for my flared car on the cheap... Let me know. I need a set desperately.
