S-lites for sale

If anyone is interested in purchasing a set of s-lites for pretty cheap, as in the $300 range let me know. Three of them have run-flats with 15K miles on them and the other one has a non-runflat. I could also take the tires off and sell the wheel(s) individually. It would make no sense to try and sell them to mainland folk because of shipping costs, so I am up for offers.

do you think these will slow down my car because they are much heavier than the 7 holeys that i got right now and also does it fit ok with stock Cooper suspension?

these will fit no problem. As for slowing your car down I have no idea, tires would weigh less (if you get non-runflats) but wheels would weigh more. You would notice the biggest difference handling, the steering gets a little bit tighter. you may want to ask around and see what others have noticed after a switch

they are in fair condition but not perfect. I think that there is one near perfect and another one with a couple small scratches, no chunks taken out of any of them, so it could be easy to refinish the other two. Let me know if you want to take a look at them, or i can try and take photos.

Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists will come to you and charge @ $100 per wheel to refinish it. $85 for BMW CCA members. Excellent work and BMW Hono uses them, too.

i think that they are in good enough shape that you wouldn't want drop that much refinishing them, but for those who are meticulous it is always an opition. I still have them available and will take $250/obo
