WTB: 17-Spoke Hamann Rims

Looking for these rims:

http://www.supercars.net/carpics/352...ooperSCS48.jpg

Does anyone know where the heck I can find them? They are the Hamann Anniversary I rims specifically made for the MINI.

Any similar rims would be much appreciated! I love the multi-spoke design, so i would love to see any rims that look like this

Go see them at Tire Rack.

RE: Hamann Wheels

These are Hamann Anniversary 18x8 et43 4x100 Mini Cooper wheel,
Hard to find (economically), The Wheel Exchange in Raleigh NC ,
has Three New Wheels, 2x $300, 1X $350, go to ebay seach (Hamann Mini)
They go for over $500 a piece, Nice wheels, I bought the pedals + (dead pedal) , shift ****, brake handle, and ws thinking about the wheels, but
my budgets, too tight. ( I believe that OZ makes them for Hamann),
Hope that helps... Best of Luck

Yeah, according to bintliff there are three on eBay (two for $300 and one for $350 -- the one for $350 was suggested by the both of you) and I'm looking at them right now... They are rather expensive, and I'd need a damned fourth one to, you know, drive... Damn these are nice rims though

Edit: I just emailed these guys to see if they have the fourth one lying around somewhere. They seem to be a really big company, so they will probably be able to find the last one for me. Maybe they will even give them to me for some kind of discount if I buy all four.... One can only hope

How much do you guys think I should get these guys to give me only three rims for? How about four? I'm sure I can get their price lowered, but I'm not sure by how much... Suggestions would help

If anyone finds very similar rims, please send a link over!!

Damn, I've been looking for these rims all night... I still only have the three that are listed on eBay, and that's just not cutting it. If anyone knows where these rims are still available, it would be REALLY helpful to me. Thanks in advance for any help!

So this is what I've found:

1 on eBay for $350
1 on eBay for $300
1 on eBay for $300
1 on an online store for $575

$1525 -- does this sound right for these rims?

Looks like only two were ever available on eBay, and they're both priced at $300 + $50 shipping for the both of them. Does anyone have any idea where I could possibly find two more of these rims? Any prices are fine with me at this point, so long as I get my hands on these rims.

I would give them a call before bidding on that rim, when I called theWheelexchange they said only 2 was in stock? (that was in July)

Anyway I was shopping for the same wheels for long time but ended up buying diff brand. but Hamann wheels are really nice.

cheapest quote I got back in July
from GermanMotoring in FL. for $2240.00 (w/o tires) including shipping to CA.

Good luck and do post pictures once you get them. =)

Edit: Oops you already found out only 2 avail. silly me.

Ahh...I would look at OZ or similar look-a-like rims. Most Hamann rims are like $1k/each!

Well I have found a 2 Hamann rims for $650 and 2 others for $1140, totalling $1790, but it's just too much. I can't justify spending so much then risking anything happening to them -- especially if bending occurs since they're 18" rims...

I think I'm just going to go with the 17" OZ Superturismo GTs. Unfortunately I love the Hamanns, and hate to take my eyes off of them... Maybe someday...

So does anyone have a set of 4 Superturismos? I have found pricing at about 880 for the set of 4 from tirerack.com -- anyone on here have any they're willing to part with? Anyone know where I can get a better deal on these rims?

Absolute Motoring in Miami, FL is better...

I'm biased cause that's where I used to work and modded my car lol.

Hamann wheels aren't cheap, I've quoted more than a few people on NAM for different models and they all say they are too expensive, understandably so. But, did you really expect a Hamann product to come cheap?

I should be able to beat Tire Racks price. If you're interested I can double check with the shop.

Yeah please! If you can get me the prices for both the Hamanns and the OZ, that would be really great!

For the OZ's, the price is basically the same as Tire Racks so you'd be better off just buying from them.

I'll get back to you on the Hamann Anniversary wheels though, also, my friend says he thinks someone makes a replica so he's going to try to find out. I'll let you know.
