Alloys Swap?

Post by Weve33 » Tue Feb 17, 2015 7:03 am

Hi all,

I've got the following alloys on my x5 and was wondering if anyone want to do a deal with them?

I'm after the 5 spoke alloys that you get on the facelift e53 models...believe they are 19s....reason being is due to finding the ride a bit stiff with these.

Tyres are Toyo Proxes all round and have about 5mm left.

Location: NR6


Here's my alloys

I've got some 5 spokes with 1 yr old Bridgestone Duelers  on about 6000 miles what sort of deal were you thinking.

Sorry for the lack of response guys! Oh blimey I didn't realise mine are worth that much. However they aren't mint, just some minor kerbing on them.

Tyres on them are all Toyo Proxes and have around 4mm left
