BMW 293 wheels - what are they worth?

Post by Matt Scarbro » Wed Aug 02, 2017 9:58 am

Hi All,

Apologies for another what's it worth thread, I've seen a couple recently.

Having trial fitted some aftermarket winter wheels I've fallen in love with them and am sorely tempted to buy another set for summer.

Could anyone give me an indication of what my current wheels are worth?
They're BMW 293 style 18 x 8/8.5 staggered
In largely respectable condition but with some kerbing marks.

I could also get them refurbed before sale if it's economical to do so.

Thanks!

Not a common wheel, dont think i have seen any for sale on the forum before and only ones on ebay are single wheels without tyre at about £150 each.

What are you going to swap to?

I doubt youll get 600 for the set.

maybe with tyres. But without 400-450 if lucky. They're rare because no one wants them. That's usually the case with wheels.

Thanks for the input Gents, swapping for some black wheels shortly.

I had hoped for £400 so fairly well aligned if I can get somewhere near that. I also have access to very sensibly priced refurbs so may be more appealing freshly refurbed to the buyer's taste...

Apologies for the delay @arl10 I am in the process of moving house so not been on here.

Wheels are available if you’ve not found anything else, I’m in Lincolnshire.

A whole year later, very unlikely, but not unheard of!
