Always funny to see the posts here lol.

Hey, so I’m looking for thoughts on what to do. I bought these BBS RIA’s for my M3, this is my second set. I had a mint gold set of RIA’s before.

I got these used and brought them home, started cleaning and noticed this cracking on one of them around the center hub. I can only guess that the retaining clip for the hub centric ring popped out while the prior guy installed and he torqued them down on it and/or ran them for some time. Of course as any marketplace deal goes, he did send me some money back to “repair them” but that’s about it. If I would’ve noticed this when getting them I obviously would have bailed, really sucks and I’m not really sure what to do.

So should I just buy a new wheel? They’re $1200 per new or should I pursue trying to fix it? I might just cut my losses and sell the set with damage disclosed and keep the nearly brand new PS4S’s they came with.

Photos 1,2 and 3 are the damaged vs 4 is one of the good ones. 5 is a photo of the hub ring & retaining clip that left the mark.
