Are you asking because you are planning to sell them or because you trying to assess for an insurance value?
Either way, give us more info about the wheels, close ups of the lips, manufacturer, condition, etc...

Like he said, the first set are AMG, the second are BBS. Nice German rollers.

I can't tell you a value, but it's probably fairly high if they are are clean as they look from far away. Are the AMG set original 5x130 bolt pattern? Never seen that before.

The BBS set is plus/minus a couple hundred dollars or euro depending on whether you have the caps for them.

Cheers!

hi/ciao and thanks, I have the chance to buy both sets, only that the prices in Europe are very different, and as I buy almost all the parts, new or used in the U.S.

The BBS are Mg race rims. Can be used on the street but are kinda fragile. Parts are getting difficult to find.
That said, I would have a use for them, not on the street. Let me know if you pass on them.

Edit: the AMG are Ronals. Quite common in Porsche drilling.

If the "AMG" wheels are 5x130, they are Ronal R9s. If they are marked "AMG", you would need to get adapters which will throw off your offset. On Pelican, people prefer Fuchs and the Ronals are not usually seen on 911s. My guess is the Ronals will run $400-$600 for a set here. Those wheels, however, look to be in excellent condition.

The BBS wheels you have are also a little different that other BBS wheels I have seen. They look like E50 centers, but on a Fuchs style outer barrel. One good thing about them is you can upgrade them to 17" if you like, or downgrade to 15". Check the centers and see what kid of lugs it takes. If it takes the ball type, you're good. If it takes the shanked lugs, make sure the wheels come with them as they are NLA. I have seen these wheels with the typical BBS barrels go for $500 - $1200 a set. Just make sure lugs and center caps are there.

Those are BBS E50's, I have seen a set sell for 2500 pounds.
I want those rims!

Brazen, I'm sorry to say this but those are not AMG wheels and the other set are not stamped on the inside mounting plate like my RS or any other set of RS BBS wheels that I've seen. It appears as though someone may be misrepresenting these to the OP in order to get a higher price. My suggestion to the OP would be to have the seller send close ups so he can see for himself that someone is trying to get more than they may be worth.
