Yeah, I'm the second owner. The wheels are about 3 years old. They have 4 months of use (summer only) since being rebuilt.

Are you saying you need more pictures? You can see the ones above right?

Thank you

Not to derail this too badly, but 323tom yeah I also have a B5 S4. It's my baby. I've had it over 10 years now.

New pics of them in black after being refinished, not old pics of them before they were damaged.

323tom · 04-05-2016, 04:03 PM

Haha awesome. What kind of truck you getting?

These are after he refinished. See the back of the barrell in the one pic, not the entire rim I think you misread. That would be a sad day if someone powdercoated brushed faces black lol

The pics above are post rebuild. This is how they look today. I'll have them out of storage by the 16th. If you need to see them in person we can set something up if someone hasn't already purchased them before then.

For others wondering, I've been quoted around $350 to ship these to New York. I'd guess $300-$350 would get these most places in the lower 48.

I think I can get them shipped to Hawaii for about the same.

Good luck with the sale Rennis. Gorgeous wheels. To anyone considering new wheels: skip the ADV.1 #yolo junk and focus on good wheels, such as HRE or BBS.

BUMP for a fellow Seattle Eastsider. I'm in Bellevue but never seen your ride around town. If you see a Black x5 on 22" forgestars, give me a honk! Wish I could swap out my Forgestars for your HREs

I've seen you around when I've been walking to lunch and stuff. nice ride!

Quick question; I see that you are using studs with your wheels. What size are they?

I can't remember for the life of me what length they are. They are LONG though. They're Macht Schnell. Guessing the 95mm kit, I'll have to measure though.

rennis · 04-12-2016, 09:21 AM

I went back through my emails with a buddy who wanted to know the specs on these when I finished them last year and found the measurements I had done

Rear - 22x12 ET32
Front - 22x10.5 ET35

rennis · 04-15-2016, 09:44 AM

Got them out of storage last night and took new photos. I took a bunch so I can email more.

rennis · 04-18-2016, 01:04 PM

bump! I know one of you ballers is filing their tax return today and is getting a bigger refund than expected.

TTT

323tom · 04-28-2016, 04:17 PM

I honestly can't believe these wheels haven't sold yet! Best wheels you can buy for our suvs. I'm getting mine back tomorrow after a month at the refinishing shop!

m5james · 04-28-2016, 11:10 PM

$7000 and yet another person needing to get them refinished, that's why lol. Seems that unless roads are as smooth as glass, forged isn't all their cracked up to be since I've had to refinish both of my other sets as well.

323tom · 04-29-2016, 07:18 AM

His wheels do not need to get refinished? I paid 8k for similar set and had to refinish. These are over 10k for wheels alone.

I've been running forged wheels for years on my cars, spanning over 12 years. Never had any issues with them. I've ran various brands too.

Come to the UK where the roads and elements are probably little worse than you guys have there.

Otherwise its fair to say you have bad luck

323tom · 04-29-2016, 08:47 AM

+1 I have 4 bmws with all with higher end forged wheels (HRE, CCW, Volks) without issues for close to 10 years. Hes basing his opinion on lower quality forged wheels like iforged lol... even some of the pricier brand wheels like adv1 use Chinese barrels and only spend the money on the lips. Good luck bending HREs unless you hit a 1 foot deep pothole at high speed lol

yeah I'm not sure what you're not getting - as others have clearly observed the wheels are in excellent condition, are of excellent quality, and need nothing.
