Welcome, these guys are very helpful, im still new to the board aswell. can someone explain to me why I will need these (m6 offset) when I purchase 166's and where did you purchase the wheels from?
I purchased from dealership for about $1800 with tax. I also found several sets for sale on eBay but decided to just purchase locally.

I have basically brand new OEM 124 wheels and tires with < 1000 miles on them that I would like to sell. What do you all think the set is worth? The wheels sell new for around $1400 and the tires I found on Tirerack at $300 (front) and $400 (rear): Dunlop SP Sport 01 DSST RunOnFlat (2) 245/40/18 & (2) 275/35/18. Total new package = $2800

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Sizes.jsp?ma...+DSST+RunOnFlat

This is the first time ever selling BMW parts so I want to make sure I set a fair price for both parties.

Thanks

Actually, the wheels sell for just over $1200, brand new, not including shipping...from Garry of Newport. Add $90 for shipping. FYI.

And you'd never get close to your proposed figure if selling the set, whether here or ebay. Most folks don't care for the runflats either. But good luck. I'd buy the wheels for a good price, but I have a feeling you'll want more than I can offer.

Thanks for the updated wheel price. I would like to try and sell as a set first and see how that goes. As soon as I get a break from work I'll post price, pics, etc. Currently out of town on the laptop.
