7 Series Wheel Weds Bavaria 1 18x9.5 2 piece

This is a rare staggered 15" by 6.5" / 7" set of WEDS "Bavaria" 2 piece rims. Not sure if they were made in the 70s or 80s? I bought these for my e21 restoration project which is a ways from done so I don't need these at the moment. I am in a bit of a financial crunch so I need to sell these fast. These rims have been restored and never mounted since I bought them. The powder coated centers and hardware are flawless and the polished aluminum lips are mirror perfect. They have no curb damage or pitting. All the center caps are included with new bmw roundels. I priced these to sell so if you know the rarity of these rims you'll know this is a steal, my loss is your gain. These will fit the BMW 2002, e21 and e30 models, e30s would need to be flared though. There's probably more vehicles that will fit this offset, not aware of any myself.  Buyers are responsible for determining the fitment of these rims to their vehicle, all dimensions are provided below.

Dimensions:

Fronts:
Rim Diameter-(15")
Rim Width-(6.5")
Overall Rim width-(190mm)
Back Spacing-(110mm)
Offset-(+15mm)
Hub bore-(57.1mm)

Rears:
Rim Diameter-(15")
Rim Width-(7")
Overall Rim width-(205mm)
Back Spacing-(110mm)
Offset-(+7.5mm)

Hub bore-(57.1mm)

They sold for Buy it Now on ebay...i missed the opportunity...$1500.00

jrcook: "whether or not they fit will depend on the profile of the inner wheel lip. Even if it "fits", make sure the tie rod dust boot isn't rubbing the lip as you'll wear through it and junk a rod end.

BMP sells cheap 5 and 8mm spacers but you'll need longer wheel bolts (or convert to lug studs). 8mm would be ideal to set your offset right at 12mm.

Motorsport tech can make custom hub centric spacers in any width, but you'll spend $200 just on spacers (that's what I'm running)."

They sell a 3mm hubcentric spacer for about $35 a pair. I've used these with both sets of my wheels that have 20mm offset.

These are 3-piece forged aluminum wheels, very lightweight

E30 M3 Header with Jet Hot Ceramic Coating

You are bidding on a very good used set of S14 headers (no cracks or any damage) that I sent to Jet Hot for 1300 Sterling high luster coating.  The coating covers both the inside and outside of the header tubes and is known as the one of the best high-tech coating in the business.  For more info, see:  http://www.jet-hot.com/headercoatings.html

Plans changed and I am unloading this beautiful piece.  It has not been installed since the treatment.

compare the 'new' ireland engineering adjustment bracket compared to the smooth ones that i installed...some say once the camber is established the concentric disc should be tac welded to hold it in place
