THat makes two of us with the Dunlop Wintersport 3Ds waiting for the AluFelgens so we can put on the summer tires. Fortunately (??), the weather here in Oregon is unseasonably cold and wet this year, so having the Dunlops on is OK for now...but a few more weeks...

Not yet. The original quote was 90 days and I put the order in 2/10. Figure a couple days for the money to clear for Alufelgen then a couple days for the money to clear to the factory in Asia and 2/20 is a probable start date.

90 days after that is right around 5/25-5/30 which is when they will be here. If anything we may miss the estimate by about a week or so which is much better than most other pre-order/group buys.

Since that was posted 3 weeks ago and the wheels are still in Asia, is it fair to say that customers receiving these in mid-June is a real possibility?

+1 on this.

Late May is doable but if we're talking about driving around 40 miles/day on my winter tires til mid-late June when temps are constantly above 85 here then it's a significant toll those tires will take and it might not make financial sense to keep them on. Don't want to use up an $860 set in one season. I guess the same goes for spellbmw up in Oregon.

Please let us know because if I have to consider other options while these wheels are on their way I might as well do it now. It's in the 80s here this week all of a sudden and I can already feel my tires struggling.

Please email us your exact postal code. Ballpark is about $1050 shipped.

If the wheels are here before the end of May then everyone will receive the wheels first week of June. If you have a tire package it will be a couple extra days.
