got a set of 4 of these wheel,
15" with a deep dish, mybe 1.5" or 2"
they are geniune bmw e30 rims, im led to believe they where an option on late cabriolets,
was going to sell them, but not sure what to price them at due to them being a bit rare and unpoplular,
any info on these would be greatly recieved
cheers

Sadly they're rare due to being unpopular - you might find someone with a fetish for them though.

They may be more desirable on the continent & I'm sure I saw a set on ebay that went for a respectable price. As Chris says, there's probably someone out there who's lusting for a set though

i haven't seen these before,
but they won't, or may not get as much as bbs 15"
are they all good tyres?
but ebay is the way for these.
:wink: just my thoughts i'd guesstimate £80--£100 for 4 and see how they go.

They went for a lot more than that when I saw them. I'd personally sell them minus tires.. Then you have a spare set for the basket weaves..

they will find their own price on e bay,,,with tyres is easier for the buyer. 8)
just put a reserve on them say £70 and if they don't meet that,,,,i'm sure they will.
you can second chance offer them to the highest bidder if your happy with their price.
try your freeads and local rag as well,,, :wink:

The tires are almost worth more than the wheels at 70 quid!

I remember seeing these on a brand new Lazurblau 325i convertible circa 1991 and thinking they looked cool, I'm pretty sure they were an expensive option too. Time, however, has moved on :o:
