What wheels are these?

Guys and gals. Anyone tell me what these rims are? I have a chance of a set of 4. Look a bit old school? Are they desirable? May part ex a set of BBS for them.

I think they're standard Z1 alloys!?!?!?

I'm sure someone will correct me in a minute though!!!

they were a bmw option.

see if this link works... http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do ... g=36&fg=15

certainly more rare than BBSs but not sure that that makes them actually worth anything, or more desirable though!

i quite like them.

Maybe not - a quick google shows they're similar, but one spoke more!!

They're BMW Style 10's. 15x7 et24 - same as 15" BBS.
As above, a relatively rare option.
Personally, I think they're quite smart.

Thats interesting. I'll need to check for BMW part numbers on the rims. If they are genuine I may put them on mine as a daily set to save my refurbed BBS. Just need to get the spare BBS of Si and I'll ring the guy up.

It's a 1991 324td touring, 194,000kms, 5 speed, ABS, mechanical sunroof, power windows, style 10 alloys, eibach lowering springs, sport seats, tow package. It is originally from France, with French registration in my name. Currently located in Brussels, Belgium. I will work with the new owner to get it to the UK. You get a bill of sale and the "carte grise" (title) with the car signed over to you.

they are on the cars for sale section

Yeah. I recognised the rims.

Met a guy with (what I think are) the same rims as these looking for a set of BBS. I may do a deal with him IF I can find the time to shoot over to Si's to pick the 4 BBS up. It's bl00dy manic here. Said I'd shoot over last weekend but ran out of time!
