Attn Wheel Geeks!: Question about BBS Rim-Center Compatibility

Hello braintrust,

need some advice .. i searched high and low before asking..

I have two sets and possibly 2 styles of 17 inch BBS wheels.
See pics

The set in top pic I know is E26 , and the lip fasten to the centers with the bolts on the outside,

the set in the bottom pic, i do not know what exact bbs part number , but for these wheels, both the lip and the rear barrel fasten to the back of the center.. so the bolts are in the back unseen.

are these lips and barrels completely interchangeable? as long as i use the proper seal for each center?

i would greatly appreciate guidance here,

cheers frank rauscher@wistar.org

All of the wheels shown in the pictures are BBS E26. The only difference is that the 2 in the top picture have reverse mounted centers which creates a more agressive offset.

^ Sounds like you have an answer.

But, you can always try contacting BBS Motorsport.
