Here is a set for sale. I couldn’t imagine paying the asking price for cast wheels but who am I to say!

You can buy new sets now and forged too. What ever color you want they just won't have the BBS logo.

Nothing is worth its asking price after 2020-2021. I sold some rk’s around that time that needed work for $3000. The current market is just people who have surplus from stocks, real estate sales, or who make cold hard cash fast. The days of $1500-2500 forged wheels are gone. Yes everyone once in a while a “deal” comes up but everyone knows what they have. $5,000 bbs wheels is for someone who couldn’t get them 10-15 years ago who wants to show off and brag and explain what they have.

Apples to oranges. If you want a BBS RK you buy it. For the design, the weight and the name. If you want fr500’s buy the heavy made in china wheel. If you want TF CCW go ahead. It’s the same price point but will never be the same wheel. BBS RK is a no longer produced “era” wheel. You can buy a $30,000 2011-2024 coyote car, or you can buy a 79-93 coyote swap notch. Whatever you want/ prefer.

Anyone have first hand info on the Victory Custom Wheels similar to BBS Rks. I've seen photos on IG and Facebook, but nothing in the forums.

Don't get me wrong I love the rk wheels but 7k. For that kind of money you can get some really nice forged wheels.
For sure… you could get pretty close to buying two sets of really nice forged wheels, brand new. Or you could get two sets of really nice forged wheels with tires used, and have $1,000 left over.

I've wanted a set of the plasmas forever. But anytime I came across a set the price was just more than I felt was right. A friend of mine has a set on his fox and he mentioned they won't clear the Baer 6P calipers I have. The spokes are too flat. I wonder if the Victories would have the same issue?

I don’t know anything about the Victories specifically, but if they’re a true custom wheel, they should be able to make up a set of wheels with a thick enough “pad” to allow the spokes to clear your calipers. I would call them to discuss… presumably they are familiar with the Baer 6P caliper. If not, I’d request a cross-section diagram from Baer, and then provide this to Victory.

I honestly need to research what market price is on these now. pm Me what you’re thinking
You may want reach out to Bring a Trailer to see if they will let you list them. HA! In all seriousness, these will bring some serious coin if they’re in excellent condition.

Last couple set I have seen for sale have been around the 3-5k range.
Even for plasmas? The last silver sets I’ve seen have been $5,500 to $7,500 (asking price). I don’t know what they actually sell for. I assume plasmas are far more desirable, if in excellent condition. If the coating needs repair, I assume it would be an issue to match /repair.
