BBS RX's

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

ive stumbled upon a set of 16" BBS RX's split rims that come on mk3/4 cabrolets - as seen in pic.
are they defo split rims??
problem is that the outer rims are quite badly corroded (common fault i hear) so will obviously need refurbed. but how big of a job is it?
the inner rims are perfect.
i dont wanna split them down only to be told it'll cost an arm & a leg to refurb the outers. i will obviously be taking them to alloy wheel rep places to get estimates - but was more interested in whehter they are worth refurbing? how rare a wheel are they being 4-stud fitment?
are they easy enough to split down? in comparision to RM's which i split down last year to get refurbed.
Cheers,
Craig
A:

they are 1 piece rims. i think you will find that the nuts are for show rather than function
A:

drat!!! should be still easy enough to refurb though i hope seeing as its just the outer edges i hope
there appears to be a seem on the inside though where the inner joins the outer rim??
A:

im fairly certain those are 2 peice split rims

They looklike the BBS rims off the mk3 Anni model but with 4 studs, if so they're splits!!
