Hi all,

Have a set of winter alloys and tyres for sale as I don’t use the zed through winter. They're now clogging up the garage, so here they are for sale. Start getting ready for that winter freeze!

I bought them from Mr Wilks a few years ago, i believe they're from a 5 series, but i could be wrong and i'm sure Mr W will assist. They're 7.5x17, i'm not sure of the offset but looked rather good on my e89.

Overall the wheels are in good condition, no cracks or buckles with the odd mark here and there (i should have cleaned them before taking a pic). If you want to be picky, you could always get them powder coated and then you'd have a sparkling new set, ready to ruin through winter.

The tyres are 2x Bridgstone Blizzak 225/45/17 with about 4/5mm of tread left on both (i had these on the front). The rears i put brand new Hankook Icebear 225/45/17 on, so they've almost full tread on them (as you'll see from the pics). I think i drove them for all of about 1000miles pver the last few winters. I think these cost £200 alone.

So i'm asking £325 for them, but open to sensible offers. Collection from Leeds/Harrogate way.

Any questions, please feel free to ask Any questions.

I can have another look tomorrow to see if I can find the et. I’m guessing they’d be the 20 as mentioned above. Not sure if they’d fit an e85. Mr Wilks may be able to advise on that one. He’s the wheel guru.

They are 7.5j et 20 , the et 43s were only for 4x4 E60s which i don't think the uk got .
Good fit for E89s , not really for E85 E86 though should go on a Z///M ok :thumbsup:

If I decide to keep the 5 series I may well be interested in these. Can Mr Wilks confirm they’ll fit my F11 M sport 520?

Thanks Mr Wilks

Dude. Thinking about changing the 5, but been thinking about it for 2 years with no success. Can’t find anything to compete. Don’t hold them for me be I’ll be in touch if/when I make a decision.

Ball park post code might be useful to calculate travel time. Cheers

No worries. I won’t be doing anything else like eBay at the moment, so they’ll stay on here.

I’m near Harrogate. LS17
