$1100 for a set of 4 OE Style 214 Rims...

Found a deal for a set of 4 OE Style 214 Rims with TPMS and tires...

Some curb rash on the rims. ALL 4 tires have decent amount of tread left, BUT all 4 tires are different brands....

$1100 worth it?

If its genuine OEM, then its a bargain; otherwise, no. You can get replica w/ tires for around $1200

If they arent originals then no. I got my oem 214s with 75% all matching tires with some curb rash, with TPM sensors for $450

Now i know thats a unicorn of a deal but keep looking outside of your city's craigslist. There is always tons of wheels in NJ and NYC craigslist.

They are all original with the Ronal and BMW stamps on them. Dude that owned it before NEVER balanced them, no weights or anything on them...smh but all the tires seem to have even wear..

So I bought the set after talking him down to $900 (he had no use for it at all...)

I got them balanced and found out that the front driver side rim is slightly bent. I put them on and I feel a very SLIGHT shake on the steering wheel when doing 50mph - 60mph.... I can probably deal with this for a little bit, but I'm sure I want to fix this later on.

Do you guys think this is repairable?

What wheels you had before? How the ride feels changed?

Im currently running 18" but considering 20". Just wonder if they will make ride much harder.

I had the stock 5 spoke 18" rims. These 20s don't feel any different to me. Doesn't feel heavier or rougher...
