Strider,

Pls be more specific about the:

1) condition of the rims

2) if it comes with tyres

.........I mean really dude, if you want us to give you an honest opinion, you need to be more specific. Based on the info you gave, it would NOT be wrong to value it at 20 sen.

I think kev's getting frustrated with queries that is so open-ended.... We cant see what u saw so it would be impossible to put a value on anything....

Hope you understand from our perspective...

Same applies to others who posted for help but without car model and engine type.... we might be BMW Enthusiasts but definitely not psychic mind-reader....

Cheers

Thank You Fabian!

i have a strong feeling the pcd is 98...for Alfa or fiat. A lot of 155s using the rim

 

[Strider]

Sorry guys,

Anonymous, yes it is made in Italy.

kevster30, it is for E30 (declared by the owner) with PCD 4 X 100 but the offset i'm not to sure. It does come with tyres (205/45) and around 30-40% tread. I'm not interested with the tyres (will change it). The rims itself in good condition but need polishing job.

Thanks again

Strider....I know how u feel when u r so excited when u find something new for the car AND forget all the details when we post!!

In any case, price is a very subjective thing esp for used items - so it finally comes down to the buyer-seller's perception on what the final value should be on......

Happy Hunting - but I would try it on 1st & make sure the offsets rite before parting with ur cash.....offset should be 20-25 IMHO.

Just my two Euros.

Strider,

How much are they asking for it? If below 1k, don't think, just buy. Just a reminder check the offset and the proper size for E30 is 205/50/16.

BTW, speedlines look great on an E30!

BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!BUY!

Kevs,

He's asking RM1.7K (look like too expensive) including tyres, but negotiable. I'm not so keen to get it. Right now am using 15" borbet A, just looking around for 16" especially BBS when i came across this rims.

Anyway, thanks a lot for the info.

IMHO, 1.7K ONO with tyres is okay.......but depends on you finally.

I am aware of a 2K price tag for a 15" BBS basketweave......which goes to show, price is a very subjective thing.

If you dig the look.....BUY BUY BUY! ( really, rims for E30 now are.....like treasures )

Cheers!

btw hav u seen this???

YES, Military model of Spyderco. First was introduced with ATS 34 blade and 'upgraded' to CPM 440V and now if i'm not mistaken S30V. flat grind blade, blade length 3 7/8", edge length 3 5/8", plain edge, 5/32" thick, G-10 handle, overall length 9 3/8", closed length 5 1/2", weight 4.1 oz.

Come in 3 different edge, plain, fully serrated and half serrated (as pictured). I have one in CPM440V, plain and non blacked blade. A very good design for all purposes use.

To me a serrated edge look aggresive and it is good to cut fibrous material such as rope. I like plain edge cause of 'clean' cut.

Did you bought it already? I got mine for RM500 only.

These are type 'A's
