OP I know you have had these online for a while and probably spent a considerable amount of money for the custom paint. Strasse wheels are also expensive.

I am in the market for wheels myself. I got a BBK coming for my X5M and unfortunately stock wheels won't clear them.

I have received pricing from several reputable wheel companies and you can get a set of 22s brand new for cheaper. The difference is the wait time and you have something immediately. However there is damage. We all know when we sell something we want to get as much back as possible.

This is just advice, if you need them gone you are going to have to make some sacrifices or offer to get them refinished. Selling as is, and I know you are going to hate hearing this, but price it low of you really need them gone. Getting some money back is better this nothing.

It took me 4 months to sell a VF540 SC for my E90 M3. Like you I disclosed issues and problems. Unfortunately, VF really screwed me and makes a poor product. I had to take a huge hit, but I sold the kit and it's out of my hands now.

Unless the wheels are HRE, BBS, VOLK, etc. you are going to take a big loss.

My question to you is how are the Scropion tires? How was the handling? You live in NY and I am in Boston so similar climates. Did you run these into winter or colder temps?

I love your wheels. Very custom and individual. That is also the issue is that the color for many would need to be changed.

Good luck OP and I appreciate in advance your thoughts on the tires and 22 setup.
