I’ve been offered a set of these in 18 inch with good MP4SS tyres - what are the rough price ranges for these wheels? Thanks in advance.

They're about £1600-1800 a set new without tyres, they're very light and extremely strong - often used as a track wheel. I'd love a set!!
If the tyres are relatively new and have plenty of life left I reckon £1200 would be about right, but it very much depends on condition. What are the specs on the wheels - imo you need to get fairly wide fronts or they don't have any concavity which doesn't look quite as good imo. 9J fronts and 9.5/10J rears would look epic!

Ed, could you hazard a guess what wheel sizes/offset these are?Jellyfishfields wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 1:14 pmAbsolutelyEd Doe wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 9:41 amVultures circling alreadyJellyfishfields wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 9:30 am Would be delighted with a set of these, if you decide not to go ahead, I'd certainly be interested
The grey one has been mentioned before, but I can't find the post.

Hey mate, sorry I missed this from ages ago. If you were still wondering, the Silver one above is 9.5J ET22 front with a fair bit of negative camber I think, and rear is 10J et 25. The Wheels are 18". I reckon it looks absolutely perfect!Jellyfishfields wrote: ↑Wed Mar 30, 2022 5:40 pm Ed, could you hazard a guess what wheel sizes/offset these are?

No problem Ed, thanks for the info.
I've not bought yet anyway, maybe I'm being a bit tight, but I can't get my head round having to pay shipping and duty to get them into the States, then again to get them into the UK.
I asked them if they could ship directly from China, but not on the cards at the moment apparently, which is a pity. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a second hand set, either these or the ones you have, which also look great.
If nothing turns up in the next few months I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and buy them new.

We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Thanks for the link, but last time I looked it was much the same cost. They are all still coming via the US.

I get what you mean, I always struggle with the cost of all the extra duties etc.Jellyfishfields wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 1:12 pm No problem Ed, thanks for the info.

For what it's worth, keep half an eye out on facebook market place. Annoyingly I just missed out on a lovely set of ARC-8s with AR-1s on them about 5miles down the road from me at a pretty decent price!

When I bought mine I bought them from Bimmerworld with a special offer from them..by the time I added taxes, shipping, duty etc in £2k I saved £40 over what the UK importer could do…Jellyfishfields wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 2:07 pmThanks for the link, but last time I looked it was much the same cost.
