Gents,

Trying to clear the last of my E30 parts. Just picked up my alpinas from the wheel refurber who only managed to strip one wheel in 12 months.

I have 2x 8Jx16 and 3 x 7J all in need of a refurb and one of the 8J has a dink in it but was told this is repairable with the application of heat and time spent on it.

I also have 4 centre caps and have polished the locks to an inch of their lives. I also bought from Cotswald BMW, 4x alpina badges, 4 x new cap O-rings, 4 x new locking cap covers and 4 x locking cap o-rings.

I scrapped the car these were going on sometime ago.
The million dollar and all to often asked question. What is the above worth?

Thanks lads.

This , but list the extra front one separately.


PS It is worth going to a tyre shop and spinning the four 'straight' ones up and making sure they are OK rather than getting a nasty suprise when the buyer comes back whinging that they are egg shaped, as many are :(

I will take them off your hands for a Misley amount, maybe a pack of Doritos and salsa dip, if your interested.

Doritos a bit on the expensive side, maybe a Kitkat take a break let someone else have a go

If you are willing to separate them I would like the to 2x 8js as long as they are round and the 'dink' is repairable.

I think it would be easier to sell the set as staggered

As I don't have the time or inclination to do anything with them what would be a sensible offer to accept if I put them on eBay. Yes unfortunately it is one of the 8js that are off circular/slightly Dorito ish.

They are taking up space in my house and don't go with my Laura ashley wall paper so just want rid.
Yes they'll be worth stupid money all finished but have enough on without refurbs and balancing.

Have you decided on what you're doing with the wheels?
