Yea style 294 is the Bmw ref , fitment numbers are 8j et 29 front 8.5j et 40 rear so will fit various Bmw models like E90 3 series & as mentioned above the earlier Z4s .
If selling as in pics with decent newish tyres the set might fetch £350ish ? Always difficult pricing used sets with decent tyres as it can sem like you are virtually giving away the tyres ( which you probably are
) but is it worth the hassle of removing them & selling separately ? If so the tyres would most likely net you around £200 / shabby wheels £200 ?Spawny lad

Depends how quick you want to sell them id start at £400.
Sold my decent condition 107s with mediocre tyres for 300, but id say your wheels are rarer (ive never seen them before!) And with better tyres!

Diamond cut :? that won't work on these , they were polished lip & lacquer i believe but best way forward is get them apart then have them dipped & powdercoated .
Refurb costs should vary from £100 if you get them apart yourself to £300/£400 if you don't .
Personal thoughts are if you can't split them yourself or can't find a place to do the job sub £300 then sell the set & buy some ready to use wheels like

That's is very expensive in the UK, I just had two of my 294s refurbed they basically just did the outer part since the inners were ok but still they had to take them apart and they cost me 50€ each, they said if both the outer and inner parts needed doing then it would be around 100€. This is for painting i guess not powder coating.

Spawny Lad I would just hold on to them in case the next owner wants them to keep the car original, also gives you spare set for winter if needed.

I did think about keeping for that reason.
But my garage is rammed.
I dont use in winter much .
The alloy wheel place would let me px mine.
I rekon its just down to after market 19s that look nice with new yokos non run flat.
Or second hand 326 bmw second hand

Just opinion of course , nothing scientific but the style 230 19s are a more robust wheel , easier to clean & look equally as good on E89 plus generally speaking they cost less to buy used & are more unlikely to have splits or repairs .
There's a forum E89 on them if you need convincing with pics
