    Wanted Style 172 Wheels (spider)

    Most likley a long shot but if anyone has any style 172 available, part no 36116766741.

    Open to sets needing a refurb if price reflects just as long as not welded or buckled.

    This for your incoming E61 ?

    I'd imagine most original style 172's will be in rag order at this stage (even post refurb after having been straightened a number of times) - they are a very soft wheel even when new and remember the youngest set is probably going to be 15 years old at this stage. One of BMW's nicest designs for sure, but they're a bit too 'felt spec now with all the reps doing the rounds imho.

    You have the MV2's to keep originality, so why not go for a set of STRÖM STR2 wheels or similar - they look very well on the E60/61's and seem to be a good compromise between price/quality ?



    Just throwing it out there......

    Yes for the E61, hadn't considered the strom as an alternative, food for thought for sure.
