FS: 17" Style 32 Wheels - SOLD

Really need to start getting rid of some parts seeing as I've sold the car now..

These were professionally refurbed, stripped and powder coated in anthracite. They're in near enough perfect condition (two very slight nicks from stones hitting whilst driving, no kerbing).

The tyres are vredistan wintracks but they'll need replacing, or they'd make a perfect set for a trackday thrash. Either way, to post them without damage it's better to keep the tyres on.

These require spigot rings to fit the z4, but I ran them like this with no issues. They're a square set from a e39 5 series touring I believe, I ran them with staggered tyres and the car was superb.

Now sold.

They'll be on eBay next weekend if I don't get any interest on here, but it'd be nice to see them go to someone in the z4 world.

Oh I'll also clean them properly for the lucky new owner :rofl:

Gday mate, are you sure this is a square set? Some off the pics make it look like there is more depth in some than others? What et are they?
Interested.. :)

looks like 2 x 245, and 2 x 205 tyres.

says in description they are on staggered tyres, not staggered wheels ;)

the e39 touring never ran staggered wheels due to the rear airbag suspension had a potential of catching the arches if it was fully aired out :)
 
OP, I'd love these - they look great!

Just two questions, are the spigot rings included?

And would they also fit an E46 (325ti)?

They would look so much better than the 16 inch 7 spokes with winters I have just now for my E46 - plus they might also fit my Z4. :lol:

Help please, mrwilks! (Or anyone similarly knowledgeable).

they will fit but you'll need to get smaller tyres on the rear - a 205 or 215 rear will suffice. The spiggot rings are £3 on ebay - they are what i have on my Z4 cos my wheels are e39 fitment too.

Thanks for clarifying that - they'd only really work with winters for me then. My E46 Sport Compact on standard rims runs 245/40x17 rears!

Shame really as they look great, but sorry they're not for me.

GLWTS. :thumbsup:

No problem, but are spacers not an option?

Sorry for the late reply, I thought I'd turned on reply notifications.. they're definitely square, just running staggered tyres as said.

Et, should be able to look it up, I'll do so and get back to you.
 
Offset (et) is often shown in the casting information on the inside of the wheel, on the spokes. Can be shown as et or 'is' or similar.
You may need that clean up first, lol!

they are et20.
 
I did think the 5 series weren't necessarily compatible with the Z's because of offset.
Techy's will give more insight but I think it would be like running with 27-30mm spacers.

I ran them for over a year and they fit perfectly, offset is perfect. I'll get a pic..
 
I wasn't being critical and I didn't mean you needed spacers but the different offset is the equivalent of having 27-30mm spacers fitted. In other words they sit out from the hub 27-30mm more than a standard set.
Good to know they can be used as it widens the options when looking to replace a set, I had always dismissed those from 5's.
Cheers.
 
OK, so somehow I still have these... great time to pick yourself up a set of winter wheels....
