Smile m3 contour wheels

Hi,
I am going to have a set of m3 contour wheels up for sale in about a week. I have a set of 7.5" wheels right now and just bought a set of 8.5" wheels. I am going to make 2 sets out of them and create 2 staggered sets. I have seen them go for $1000-$1200 on ebay. I will let them go for less. Send me a message if your interested. I will email you pics next week when the wheels arrive.
Thanks
Lee

$1000-$1200..... they typically sell for around half that just so you know. If they dont have tires $500 would be a good starting place for ya. Good luck.

if you can find me a set for 500 (staggered set), then I will believe you. I have been looking for a few months now. i have not found any staggered sets for anything less than a grand.

Edit: these actually have two sets of tires that come with.

Another set for $600 with tires: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=997761

Ok, here we go, set of staggered contours WITH TIRES for $500- http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...light=Contours

Edit again: he dropped his price to $425 for these

I almost won a set of those on ebay for 495. The other guy got them for a dollar more. I think you are thinking of those people who have a buy it now price of 1200 and wait for suckers to pay that.

Naw we're not trying to beat you up, you just asked for some proof and I got you some. We've all made mistakes on pricing like that, sell your contours for a good price and you will have no problems here. And feel free to ask if you need help finding some parts, Id love to help.

Price of wheels has mostly to do with what level of quality or perfection one is looking for. For five or six hundred you're going to get what you see in the photos, someone's curb trashed, maybe straight (maybe not), pecked up, clearcoat worn wheels featuring faded M-stickers and bad center caps.
For more than a grand you can get a straightened, repainted, properly clearcoated, commercially refinished wheel that is in like new condition. Again, all depends on what you want on your car.
I couldn't sleep at night if my Contours looked like the ones in the photos but that's just me.
