Ok so I got the BB bible the other day, and as soon as you open the first page BOOM, they have a full layout of a Fabulous equiped bB, and I now need to find that set of rims, Fabulous Profound's. Anyone have any clue as to where I could purchase these.

I'd send them an email and see if they have a stateside dealer, check out the site for the info.

Actually, the Fabulous wheel are made by Fabulous Company. Work wheels is one of the few top-end wheel that you can purchase from japan. In either way they are NICE! Oh.. yes you can PM Mr. Van Phan @Nor-Cal for any wheels......

That's what I thought.

Yeah, I just got my Vol.2 recently too and those wheels are sick. Deeeeeeeeep lip.

You gonna get the black ones shown or the chrome ones? The polished lip on the black ones is nice!

chillenn310 · 07-07-2004, 11:49 PM

those are custom fabulous wheels, but they look somewhat like the work eurolines. it's only slightly different. I'll try to find some pics to compare.

littleblackbox · 07-08-2004, 01:26 AM

yeah I was lloking for those wheels in the black, they have that nice D E E P lip, and I love th look. Any help would be great

littleblackbox · 07-11-2004, 12:18 PM

ok, I've sent some emails out, but haven't heard of anything yet. I'll keep everyone posted on my finds

Try hitting up Op8r to see if he could help you out with buying the rims. Just to let you if you get them from most rim shops throughout Japan, they will cost ya some money. I had just came from Japan and learned that if you buy the rims from the VIP Wagon or Style Wagon magazines, you would save 1/2 then buying them from Super Autobacs, etc.

MyBoX · 07-11-2004, 08:06 PM

I can order them for you but here the prices before shipping
Fabulous PROFOUND
16x7.5 +30 --> $620-$720
17x7.5 +30 --> $720-$820
18x7.5 +30 --> $820-$920
And these are depends on the finish, offset and width you may want , for the setup like you see in all Fabulous pictures,
front 18x8.5 +18 (90mm lip) $860
rear 18x9.5 +18 (103mm lip) $900
Have fun and let me know if you want more info about them, by the way prices are per wheel

Take care Sean

velocitybb · 07-12-2004, 02:54 AM

R those the prices per rim? Do the company you go through have deals like buying a set with tires for 1,900 bucks, depending on the offsets? Like I said, If you buy rims in Japan through VIP Wagon, Style Wagon, etc, you save 1/2 price buying them per rim and 4 tires.

MyBoX · 07-12-2004, 03:37 AM

Those are MSRP per wheel, and I don't think there is any deal going on with Fabulous since they make everything per order and they don't carry that much stuff in stock, Sean

velocitybb · 07-13-2004, 07:04 PM

I would suggest this to people who want rims from Japan, if you got a friend there that could hook you up from ordering them from the VIP Wagon and StyleWagon magazines, do so!!! Trust me, I had just came from Japan and I had ordered them for a luxury car and I spend 2,060 bucks for 9J front and 10J rear for 18inch rims with tires brand new. And the if I had bought them from rim shops, it would had cost me 4,300 with tires. That is the only advice I would give to people who would want to order Fabulous, Work, or any other rims from Japan, have a friend there to hook ya up and send them to ya!!!!

i was always thought the wheels on the Fabulous Bb were Veilside Andew Racing Golt Dishes? just they dont have that line down the middle of each spoke.. hmm but look identical.. the veilside rim pic looks kinda light.. but they list as black with a polised lip..
