WTB: Strut Tower Brace

the aluminum tariff is only for bulk aluminum, not manufactured aluminum ... that would only be the std. UK tariff (still not insignificant), especially considering the current exchange rate

OK that's good to know. But even $830 is too much when I can get the WN part for $250. I've had enough dealings with our government (even before a certain president introduced total chaos) to know that sometimes the particular person collecting tariffs doesn't understand that difference.
 
BBS-RS are beautiful wheels. I am considering a set for my coupe as well. By the way, 16 x 7 et11 is the front wheel spec. Most who run 16s do a staggered fitment with 16 x 8 et24 in the rear. That would be BBS-RS 005 and 006 respectively.

Yes thank you.

My car has a square setup of 16x7 Alpina replicas. The tires are almost new. So I think I'd prefer a square setup of BBS as well - that way I can swap the almost-new tires on without buying wider for the rear. Also, that way I can rotate the tires if needed. I have considered getting 5 or 8mm spacers for the rear to get the same look as a staggered setup - and those can also be used if I ever go back to the Alpina set.

Of course if somebody has a staggered set for a decent price I would consider it too.

the most reasonable price for a staggered set are the Coupeking Alpinas - very well made and affordably priced. finding affordable 'real' Alpina 14" or 16" is a thing of the past
