Anyone with VMR wheels close to central PA?

[N55_BBM]

I'd like to see what they look like on the 1er..

looking for the 710's, 701's, or VB3's..

Don't know which one I want for the spring so I was hoping to see them personally MOUNTED to the car. I'm in Harrisburg, PA...

yeah i know but i dont want them in bronze and want different tires

Ok, well the reason why Im selling such new wheels for $400 less than they cost new is to give incentive for someone local to buy them and use the extra money saved if they want to have the wheels stripped and re-finished. There are quite a few places around here that do such things, probably for less than $400. And the tires are sold, they are not on the wheels, I am just selling the wheels separately.

New ones cost $850 in the color I want (gunmetal), you're selling for $700...

Once you factor in the cost of repairing the curb rash, getting them refinished, etc etc and then factor in my time, hassle, and all those other intangible things, it's a lot more expensive then getting a new one.

now if I wanted them in bronze it would be another story...

Indeed, however they are $1100 powdercoated, that doesnt include shipping as well.. and these wheels have less than 3k miles on em. With a simple refinish job, that would take care of everything, the curbing hasnt touched the alloy underneath, you strip the orig powdercoat and re-coat, job is done. Trust me ive thought the costs over. Even if you didnt re coat em, they look fine unless you get up close to the fronts' edge. But if youre only lookin for silver or GM, go for it.
