TRX wheels and tires are a metric sized affair and the tires are VERY expensive and are only made (I believe) by one manufacturer. I think Michelin is out of that business. Trust the collective wisdom. You don't want them.

I can, however, supply you with a set of 16 inch weaves off of a E38. They are complete with tires, but the tires may be a little large for your car, if it is lowered at all. But they are in great condition and only $400. Center caps included. Hubcentric without rings. Might could get them delivered, too. I have a buddy maybe headed down to Richmond to see his sister and he can bring them along and drop them on his way down. Or you could get them on the Philly area rally-drive in November.

I have to check the size of the tires on them to make sure but I think they are 225/60/16. Might be a bit much sidewall. But they could fit, in which case you could just burn them off the wheels, and then replace them with some 215/55/16 or 225/50/16.

If you are interested, Email me for pictures.

OH man o man.. style 4's would look great on your car. Get yourself in the house, and start kissing some arse to make your olds change their minds :laugh:

And as said above - avoid the TRX's like the plague.

How much for the contours?
I know Christian tell me about it! I have been keeping up in school and I just got a 105/100 on my first math exam!
Maybe as it nears closer to october 26th they will start changing their minds. Which sucks because the style 4's are already gone I think and I bet the other deals may go away by that time. I wish I could act now! haha

Get those style 4's! Those are sweet and not very common.

I like the contours too, but not a big fan of spacers.

The style 4's are what I'm drooling over right now, but I'm not sure he still has them. :(
Disco stu, 750 is a steal for your wheels, but yes it is a little out of my range.
Style 32's are nice, but I feel like a good number of people have them, and I want something uncommon.

I'm thinking the only other basketweave style I want is style 5. Those cannot be even dreamt about on my budget, so I'm looking to get away from the basketweaves.

What about a really nice set of 15" Style 5s from an E34? Well within the budget...

They've got good tires, but I will probably keep them. Between the additional cost and shipping it would definitely blow the budget, but if I sell the wheels alone they will be well within the price range.
