jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 ... lend me a set of wheels for a week or so while my M Pars are refurbished? I need 16-18", between 8-10J wide (non-staggered is fine), et 15-25mm, centre bore 72.6mm (which is fairly standard I think for most bimmers but E39 wheels won't fit. All offers considered, box of beers (or similar) for the winner! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks matey... It's definitely an option as I don't use the 8 daily. Would prefer to keep it driveable if possible though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westy 614 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Some really shithouse E39 16s with rooted tyres in the wood shed. Would keep it off the ground? Away for the next week though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks Tony. No hurry... Think the E39 centre bore is wrong though (74.1 instead of 72.6). I suppose some hubcentric rings would work as it's only temporary. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westy 614 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Yeah it is, tyres are stuffed so you wouldn't be driving anywhere on them anyway. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 That would be awesome, thanks Jeff. What's the offset? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3_Power 636 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Have a set of e46m3 18s you can borrow... Not sure if they work however offset wise. Shout if they do and I'll bring them over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks Tom. Think the E46 M3 offset is a bit out. I've has a kind offer from Darin to borrow his Breytons. They should be a good fit so will probably go with that. Keen to see what they look like on the 8 too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
handgrenade 189 Report post Posted September 13, 2014 Hey Julian I have a set of 17x8 BBS rs 35+ two need tyres but I have a pair just need to put them on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted September 14, 2014 Thanks Ken. Offset's a little too big but thanks for the offer! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Reviving this as I'm finally about to get the wheels done and, unfortunately (for me), Darin has just sold the Breytons he had offered to loan me. My fault for dawdling but now I need some wheels... Or an extra pair of stands (Martin!). Box of beers and a promise of extreme care in it for the lucky donor.
