I know this is a serious long-shot here but I know there are a few BMW types on this board so you never can tell...
1. Your real name: Kent
2. Your location: Cincinnati OH
3. Whether you’re willing to ship or not: buyer's expense
4. Contact info: PM please
I have a set of four AC Schnitzer wheels, 17x8 +38 all around, 5x120 bolt pattern. Excellent fitment on E36 cars. These are genuine ACS, made by Ronal (with the stamp inside the spoke to prove it). I bought them last spring for a good deal but have decided that I'll be happier with something else.
The wheels are in good to very good condition. I can't lie - they do have some scratches and rock chips. Only one has a curb mark, and it's a small one (1/2"); in fact it might not be a curb at all, but caused by the previous owner's lousy packaging job when he sent the wheels to me. Other than that one ding, any other marks on these wheels could be cleaned up with a thorough wet-sanding/painting job, or of course having them refinished is always an option. Also, they had no trouble balancing out so I'm assuming they're straight. They don't vibrate at all (my stock wheels did so I can tell the difference) FWIW.
The pictures show the wheels on my car for an idea of fitment. The tires are NOT included, unless we work a trade deal for something very similar; they only have a few thousand miles on them and they'll fit the wheels I hope to get, so I intend to keep them at this point. I will handle having the tires dismounted etc so no worry there.

I do have a few other photos and can email on request.
Trades:
-Kosei K1, silver, 17x8.5 +40 (5x120). Must be in excellent to near-new condition, and I'd probably ask for a little cash on top.
-OEM M-Contours, square 17x8.5 setup. Color unimportant but I prefer silver. I do NOT want staggered, or all fronts. I realize condition will vary, so several hundred cash on top is likely.
I suppose I'd entertain other trade offers but I'll tell you up front I do not want Style 5s or really any other web-spoke-style wheels. I'm most interested in wheels that come close to OEM rear fitment - that is, 17x8.5, and about 40 offset. I definitely don't want 7.5" wide and I'd like to go wider than the current 8" of the ACS wheels; I would consider 9" wheels but would probably decline. 18, 19, and larger diameter wheels need not apply. In all honesty I am most interested in a set of Koseis.
Sale price:
Honestly I'm not sure what to ask for an outright sale. I was told by multiple OB.C members that these wheels are over $2000 a set new, and I didn't believe it - until I checked around, and found they were correct. Obviously that price is absurd for used wheels.
Cash price is $650 plus shipping. I'll consider reasonable offers as well. I take paypal/MO.
Please PM if interested. I'll try to answer all questions.
