Selling (1) 20x10 ET18 BBS LM-R in Diamond Silver with collision damage. My car was side swiped from the rear and my wheel was damaged. I was told that the wheel could be machine corrected by straightening and then potentially re-welded or re-barreled. I didn't consider this option because my car has full coverage and my insurance company went ahead and ordered me a new wheel from BBS in Japan. The face is still in excellent condition and seeing how BBS does not offer replacement parts for their LM/LM-R series it could make a great spare,replacement,etc. There is still significant value in the face although the barrel is damaged because of the rarity in the wheel/offset combination. The wheel brand new sells for $1,555 not including shipping from Japan and there is also a 6 month waiting period. I would really prefer to sell this to someone who could actually use it instead of having it sit around in the garage. If anyone has any questions/concerns feel free to PM me. Aloha from Hawaii!

That wheel as-is, is damaged beyond repair.

Even though the lip can be straightened, (likely it will crack again during straightening), I would not weld horizontally on the lip like that as it will very likely split again at the first pothole it sees.

If you can source a new lip, it could potentially be usable, but I can't tell 100% from the pics.

GLWS...but it would make a cool garage ornament!

Yeah if anything I would advise the buyer to source a new barrel if they can instead of trying to fix it. Mainly just testing the waters to see if anyone is looking for a replacement face/BBS rivet bolts/center cap.
