deedub 44 Report post Posted December 19, 2024 I'm considering these. They're genuine and look in good condition. 3.5k. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/wheels-tyres/alloy-wheels/listing/5072098059 What do you reckon of the price? Reasonable? For comparison: - Genuine/New from Alpina would be about 6.5 - 7k delivered - Maxilite reps would be close to 3k delivered (from bimmerworld - didn't look for cheaper places) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil McCauley 399 Report post Posted December 19, 2024 Seems steep for a non staggered set. Market seems to agree as they've sat for 6 months+ How about something left-field?https://www.rmlwheels.com/products/bottlecap-16-pre-order-coming-fall-of-2024 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About the same cost of alpina reps delivered as well. Definitely an interesting option. You got me thinking for a minute there. Would def be pretty unique at that size as well and still fit the OEM+ build I'm going for. Though I've had my mind set on alpinas from the start. Prefer genuine but if I went with reps then I'd have some extra coin to set aside for other work. Which is why I was interested in the trade me listing. Does seem pretty steep though for a used set... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea pricey from source. Not much change from 7k after duty etc. Ive got a deal worked out for a genuine set in excellent condition with tyres (through a forum member). Not staggered but Im not fussed on that (staggered does look nice though). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For comparison: - Genuine/New from Alpina would be about 6.5 - 7k delivered - Maxilite reps would be close to 3k delivered (from bimmerworld - didn't look for cheaper places) I'm sure you could snatch those for $3k? My staggered Maxilites were just under $2k landed from Classic Wheels Australia (split shipment to keep each under $1k threshold) - I love them TBH, a slightly larger centre cap and subtly angular design which I like against the chunky Tech 2 - look fanastic and still like new 2 years later. At that point a genuine set like this was for sale but $4k and I kind of wanted the staggered look, even if it made the car a little less lively.

That's on to it. Hadn't thought of splitting wheels to get around the duty charges. I'll keep that in mind for future orders. I've got a genuine set lined up to purchase soon from a forum member who reached out to me after seeing this thread. Was close to getting the reps staggered like yours.
