Folks,
I know, I know...not a BMW product but what to do? This is the only car forum I frequent regularly and I figured, if anyone out there knows another R class owner, it would be you guys.
So here goes. I have upgraded my 18 inch R500 rims to a 19 inch set from Merc. As such, I have a nearly new set of 4 18 inch 5 spoke original Merc 500 rims for sale. Shod with Michelin 4x4 Diamaris tires (255.55WR18) and only 3k mileage covered. New price for rims alone is $4.5k from Cycle. Fitted with the same tires would set you back around $6.5k. I am selling the set of 4 at $3k.
If you know of anyone who has bought the R350 and can actually live with the look of the standard 17 inch rims for the R350, then good luck to them! Just kidding, but I personally cannot stand the look of the standard 350 rims. Way too puny and 'weak'. To illustrate my point, I have attached a coulpe of pics below. The one on the left is the standard R350 rim while the one on the right is the standard R500 rim which I am selling.
You can view (and fit) the rims and tires at Hurry Tyres next to Serene Centre in Bukit Timah. Ask Mr Tan for the R500 merc rims. Anyone want to know more can PM me. TIA!
