Hi guys,
I know I will never forgive myself for doing this, right now I just hate myself for doing this. I've decided to put up for sale IMO the best set of wheels I've ever owned. We are talking about the one and only 20" HRE P40 Monoblock wheelset in staggered format fitted specifically for the E60 M5, finished in its true raw brushed aluminum and only clearcoated for protection and shine. Yes, these are THE WHEELS that inspired Dinan Engineering to contact HRE to make Dinan's own version of the P40, which they designated P40S. What is the difference? About 2 lbs. of material was shaved and feature Dinan center caps, that is it!!!
Reason for selling is that I have a set of the original 19" Dinan wheels. I only used the P40 set for in-town and long range trips. The Dinan wheelset I used for canyon runs and track days. I used to not mind so much switching out wheels but more and more its becoming a PITA. I'll also admit, my garage space is very, very limited. In addition, I realized something after spending a full 2-day track session with the Dinan wheelset, how incredibly brilliant the Dinan wheels really are when it came to improving the car's handling, faster turn-in, lighter weight and lower rolling mass. So much that when I put back on the HRE P40, the handling, accelerating and braking were noticeably different (worse). But let's put things into its proper context. The P40 remains to be one of the lightest and sexiest wheels you can put on the M5. Unfortunately, 20" wheel performance simply cannot compete with 19" wheel performance. And still, in the world of 20" wheelsets, the HRE P40 is the Top Dog, the Head Baller if you will IMO.
So here are the details:
Used for a little over a year, maybe 5k miles (E60 M5 is not my DD)
Front wheel size: 20 x 9", ET9
Rear wheel size: 20 x 10.5", ET28
Front tire size: Michelin PS2 255/35ZR20
Tread life left: 60%
Rear tire size: Michelin PS2 295/35ZR20 (curse Michelin for not making a 295/30ZR20)
Tread life left: 90% - purchased new right before MFest this past april.
The wheels are perfectly straight and rolls true, no nicks, no dings, no dents. The wheels look really new.
These wheels do not require any spacers or hub centric rings to be fitted on the E60 M5. I'm sure it will fit other BMW models but I don't guarantee fitment on the other cars.
Asking price: $4,500 as is, picked up locally.
I can also ship the wheel set, but buyer is responsible for the additional cost of packing materials, shipping costs and insurance fees.
If you have other questions, please don't hesitate to PM me.
I'm located in Anaheim (Orange County), CA 92802.
