gjm 3258 Report post Posted April 14, 2016 Does anyone know what these weigh? Could even be a possible call to see if anyone has a set available. At some point. Maybe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3322 Report post Posted April 15, 2016 nope. they are aparrently very rare, so if you see a set, buy them. then weigh them, and tell the world. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gjm 3258 Report post Posted April 15, 2016 They're a factory-fit on the E38, but maybe most people decided to go with something else? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olaf 3322 Report post Posted April 16, 2016 looking at the images, the style 15's they're the beluga caviar to my perrier jouet le belle epoque. style 32's are simply Moet NV with some average fois gras, in comparison. Fois Gras and Moet is certainly nice, but beluga and vintage limited release champagne, is something else indeed. Graham, I expect you to have acquired these style 15's before next week begins, in case they vanish! Do it for humanity.... do it, for the whales and the geese! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I need to come and eat at your house!The reason I was asking is because I've seen an E30 wearing them, and it looked very nice indeed. Leaving aside (for the moment) all the fun of a 5-stud swap, I wondered if the 7-series rims might be a little heavy for an E30. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leaving aside (for the moment) all the fun of a 5-stud swap, I wondered if the 7-series rims might be a little heavy for an E30. Not if they're forged (like style 4s) I do see what you mean about the wheels though, they don't really suit an e38 (IMO), but look retro so I an see the appeal on an e30 or even an e28 Edited April 18, 2016 by eliongater Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NVADER 54 Report post Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) I have a set off my e38 sitting at home. They still have big, e38 sized balloons on them too which won't help but I'll grab one out and weigh it at work tomorrow Edited April 20, 2016 by NVADER 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
