Selling Z4 M Wheels and Tyres
Discussion
I sold my own personal Z4 M Coupe just over a year ago, it was a car I kept for myself for 18 months, and done a couple of Kent Runs in it too. I posted on here about it a few times too.
Anyway when I sold it, it had genuine CSL wheels on it, and I agreed to let the buyer have the original wheels as part of the deal, although he had to arrange to pick them up afterwards.
About six weeks later, he text me to arrange courier to pick them up, but I was away, and told him I would not be there for the next 2 weeks to let a courier have them. Since then I have not heard a thing.
Its been over a year, and because it was private sale, none of the paperwork went into my normal invoicing/accounting system, so I don't have his contact details anymore.
Is it ok to sell them now?
If so for much? They don't fit many cars, I guess only Z4 M Coupe or Roadster, or E46 M3? any others?
FYI, I took them off when the car had about 6k, perfect original condition, with about 3-4mm on the rears and about 5-6mm on the fronts.

They normally go for between £600 and £800 for the set with decent tyres.
However, depending how they've been stored the tyres may be next to useless (don't ask how I know).
Check on the sidewall to see the date of manufacture (week & year), for example week 19 of 2006 in picture below.
If they're older than about 4 years (as in the picture), then they're at the end of their life no matter how much tread they've got left, and you'll find a tyre that's 3 months old will have better performance than the same tyre that's 4 years old.

Very interesting, thanks.However, depending how they've been stored the tyres may be next to useless (don't ask how I know).

Ive had an email from someone on here via my website, but I could not reply as I think there is a mistake in the email address. Because its via Autotrader, it does not reply directly to the sender, but instead to the email address typed in.
Anyway Colin@C***** resend, and I will reply.
