Might be interested. Couple of questions for ya. First up, are they all eight inches wide. Reason I ask is because lots of guys run 8's front and 9's rear, which is fine on a T but not so good on a 4. Stuffs with the Atessa a bit even if you're running the same size tyres front and back.

Second question, do you know the offset?

Number three, do they clear the stock calipers without spacers?

Number four, any rash on them? They look good in the pics. Not fussed if the white paint is scratched.

That'd be going anyway. Only worried about the metal.

Cheers.

they did have some scratches in the metal, but most of it was sanded back before painting

Sounding good. Looky, if they're sitting in your shed have a look on the back of one of the rims. There should be a stamp or casting saying ET15 or ET83 or whatever.

The two numbers after "ET" are the offset. It'll either be on the inside of the rim or the back of one of the spokes. Handy to know when you're buying or selling rims. People usually want to know. I know what I need to clear the guards after I fit the camber correction kit to the rear. The current 9's clear now but correcting the camber means they won't. Excess camber bad. Right camber good. Cheers.

    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
    • Man, I miss having a phone that fits into my hand!  
    • The speed this thing starts up is making me want to replace my old one. Though my old one immediately kicks into reverse camera as soon as reverse is engaged, it's clearly not part of the android system. For everything else though, starting up, connecting to hotspot, opening maps, starting music in spotify is easily a ~2 minute affair.
    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
