Should I Sell my 326M alloys?

Post by sunnydays » Sat Sep 09, 2017 6:09 pm

I have a set of these sat in my garage fully fitted with run flats. I was thinking of keeping for the sake of resale value, but do you guys think people will be fussed if the alloys are non standard given the reputation of the 326m?

Considering selling them but not sure if I would regret in the future? What would a set of these generally fetch?

Let me know your thoughts guys

Hi, if they are in good nic with no curb damage I'd say around £1k?
The rf tyres seem to be the root of all evil with these wheels though, maybe easier to sell on with normal tyres :?

They had cracked previously but have been refurbed and now are all in mint condition. Would you still say £1k was fair?

Thanks

I'm debating about putting m359's on mine as 1 of my m326's is cracked and although I'd happily have it repaired I'm confident I'll get more cracks given the state of our roads even with non run flats.

If I do then I'd probably sell the m326's which is gutting as they were the only wheel I wanted when looking at Z4's!

Maybe a little less for repaired ones, £8/900 at a guess?

It's a difficult choice. 19" 326s with welded cracks and marshmallow pressures all round.

Or 18" 295s with Pirelli P Zero asymmetrics (£453 the set) at 36 & 44psi that drive like a dream.

Mmm ...

If they have had cracks and been welded they are worth half money if you can get someone to buy them...

Where are you getting 295s with tyres at that price?
