Hi,

I have a set of 5 spoke 17" alloy wheels on my car. All excellent tread, one brand new dunlop tyre. They are very nice condition, with bmw centre caps and not a lot of curbing. I want 16" wheels as the roads round me are too rough for big wheels! So if somebody wants to swap some 16" i may be interested. I paid 300 for them, and 90 for the new tyre and balaning. A mechanic friend told me (when sitting in the car) he thought 1 may be slightly off balance, but nobody else has noticed it, or me, so i doubt it to be the case, just mentioning it. :) I like votrex style alloys.

I may also swap for a set of 15" bbs. They must be mint, with quality tyres, with lots of tread (over 5-6mm on all).

Try me. :)

I also have a spare wheel with brand new tyre if this helps...

:D
