WTT: OEM 197 for OEM 17" wheels - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

tolkino · 05-19-2011, 11:31 PM

Just putting the idea up there to see if anybody is interested.

I have a set of 18" OEM style 197 rims that came with my car. Apparently all of them have bends on the inner side, which are not noticeable to eye.

I use these as my winter rims, knowing that they were bent, I had them on for 2 winters, and I haven't encountered major problems. I love these rims a lot, so it never really bothered me.

I inquired about fixing them, and I got quoted $100 each, so $400 total.

I just had the idea that I want to get smaller set of rims for winter, and I really like some of the new 17" OEM rims (especially sedan ones).

So if there is anybody interested in such trade, let me know.

My rims are currently mounted with the greatest winter tires Blizzak LM-25 which could be included in the deal too. I believe 2 of my rims have some curb rash.

Pics to follow.

I know you want 17's but if you consider 159's ever let me know, I know someone who will trade you.
