My 525 came with some 15" weaves from an e34 540. I'm going to replace them with something else, are they worth anything to anyone or should I just trade them in to Discount Tire for tires?

dont trade them to discount...they messed me up for a couple sets of tires. better to offer them here or on the bay. theres always someone looking for a good set. If you only need one they cost 2 bills for a straight one!

Cool. I'll post them up here when I find a new set of wheels.
Discount is giving me $300 for the ugly ones on my wife's touring. I worked the deal out with them a while back on those.

540i has Honeycomb style... not basketweave.

I didn't know Discount Tire will take trades on old wheels.... Are you talking about www.tires.com, www.discounttiredirect.com, www.discounttire.com?
I have a set of 15" Honeycombs in storage wondering what to do with them...

Wait, I'm confused. I have an original issue '95 540i with what I thought were 15" basketweaves. The honeycomb ( with its fewer, wider spokes) in matte and chrome were on the 525's or so I thought. Do I have them reversed?

Discount Tire at the store. Same place as tires.com, except in their store.
Here's a pic of the wheels on the car, with near new bridgestone tires.

I always thought those were weaves. I also put new centers on them yesterday to replace the old yellow ones.

probably About $300 to $400 range depends on market and demand. Check ebay for past auctions.

Thanks! Discount offered me $300 in trade for new tires. I may try to bump them up to $350 and call it a day.

they are V8 wheels - different from other weaves, different cap too.
