Hey David:
What are the wheel/tire combos on your cars in your sig and where did you source them? Any idea of the going rate for them?
Thanks in advance for your help

Aren't they Style 5 BBS 17 inch?

Wish those were all my cars! On the left is Jason's Mauritius Blue M5 with 18x8 and 18x9 Style 5's off an E38 7 series, fitted with the centercaps from the 16" Style 5's that also came on E38's. Not sure what tires or sizes he's running. Those run for $1k+ in good condition, but occasionally you'll find some for cheap on Craigslist, but they're RARE.

Mine are the common 17x8 Style 5's off of the E39 528i Sport/2001 525i Sport. They can be found for about $700 in good condition, and for much less when in questionable condition. In that sig pic, I was running 255/40's all around. Those were a bit big. Now I'm on 235/45's.
