Thanks,

I heard somewhere that you can just use some normal socket? i guess not true?

maybe you can contact someone on here that works with these wheels. i believe rgofst refinishes bbs wheels. i'm sure there are others as well. maybe sonjay or jeff alton.

Paul,

I didn't see any attachment on your thread, are you looking for the plastic BBS center cover socket nut wrench? I bought a new one direct from BBS about a year ago. If you want me to look up the information just PM me.

while it doesn't sound like you want the centercap wrench, FWIW for those who need one, a Sears Strapwrench works wonders. I had BBS wheels on one of my SHOs & had misplaced the wrench. I forget which size strap was better, the red or the blue, but it worked.

I am looking for the little socket to take off the many bolts that connect the 3 peice wheels together around in a circle inside the lip

thanks

Paul,

It's an 8 mm. 12 pt. socket...

Anyone have a pic of said tool? I find it hard to believe that a guy on Vortex is RENTING his out for $150.00.

I have access to some parts warehouses and I may be able to find one.

FWIW..My OZ centercaps don't screw in like the BBS, they have a submerged bolt....but he wants to take the wheels apart....

Post a good clear photo of the offending bolts. Tony.

I just thought about a couple of strange little sockets that I have. They might be what you are looking for. Pictures please. Tony.

Bumping this thread from the dead...anyone know of a source for these 10pt. sockets (or anything else that would work in lieu of the correct tool?)...

Danny_Ocean · 06:41 PM

Found em. For those similarly situated and searching this in the future...they ain't called "10pt. sockets", they're called "Mercedes Decagon Special Sockets"...go figure.
