Well then that's a plus! You'll get a few years out of them then, just be ready to swallow the price tag when they need new winter meats (the 19" size tires cost more than the staggered 20" sizes)

I know RB i just can't put 18"'s on my car so I'll have to swallow the price tag of 19's in the event I end up in that size
I'm one of those that think 21" wheel is the perfect size for E53 rather than 20"
Now you know why I don't want 18's lol

I saw the wheels. Keep in mind those tires are already 5 years old. I don't know how much driving you do but they may age out before they wear out. Granted that won't be for another few years.

Josh are you talking about the set from Portland?
That's why I said there was quite a few style 232 sets for sale lately on Craigslist...
In the add I see no mention of the 5 year old tires..or you assumed perhaps?

Ok I'm almost there
Meeting up with the seller tomorrow
Here's how it's gonna look in the rear style 232 compared to my current 168's
I can take the 30mm spacers off and have the wheel sit almost as flush with the wheel arch as my 168's
If all goes well tomorrow will have new winter shoes

Sorry, I found a local set that pretty much matched your description, so I assumed they were them. I think they will look good!

Hey Josh in fact you were correct.I originally had my eyes on a set in Portland but ended up buying the set from Seattle...
The tires are indeed 4 years old but the owner showed me his log book and they were driven no more than 3500 miles per year...
The wheels look like they just came from the factory - MINT condition
I also got 2 sets of TPMS sensors for E70 and E71...tires have A LOT of meat left on them ...Goodyear Ultra Grip RFT ....the wheel and tire package + 2 sets of TPMS cost him 4600$..he provided receipt ...they were all mine for 1300$
I'll post some pics tonight ...perfect timing since tomorrow I'm off to Leavenworth and it looks like we have snow on the pass..
Picking up the hub centric rings for the front as I'm typing this.
