Hi there I bought these wheels locally to get through an MOT as my alloys had a crack. These are the wrong wheels for my car, offset and rim width is too small on the rears, I need to source new wheels then put these up for sale and wondered if anyone knew what they were exactly, just for the title of an eventual ad that may help to sell them that's all. They are 19" and the rears are 8.5j and front 8 if this helps.. Thanks

Sh*t that didn't take long... Brilliant thanks for that. seemingly quite valuable then, I only paid 400 quid for them, with tyres, ok the paint is pealing but no scuffs at all

They look like the black 719s on my 2 series:

Believe it or not, the the 403 wheels aren't on that site!, They don't exist, they are all in numerical order and it goes from style 401 and style 404, weird!

Don’t expect to make any money based on them being ‘quite valuable’. The 403M is a lovely wheel in its original diamond cut state, but it looks like someone has painted those black/grey with a rattle can. They also chose to fit them with minging wheel centres. Shame really.

I used these guys, back in early 2011, to buy some winter rims / tyres for a 335i I used to have.

https://www.bmautosport.co.uk/showroom/product_inf...

bmautosport had refurbed the alloys before I bought them and after 60k winter miles on the 335i and a 335D, the finish is still spot on today.

Not sure why I still have 'em tbh......the offsets are all wrong for the 640GC I bought last year. getmecoat

strange post considering the first link to black wheels. Looks like powdercoat to me they way it has chipped and not very clean in the pictures.
Centre caps are penny’s. Id sell them without anyway.

I would say the limiting factor is the autogreen tyres.

I was just interested to know what wheels they were really, so when i eventually put an ad up, I know what they are that's all... Just for the record regarding tyres there are brand new Michelin PS4's on the back, the fronts only had those put on as i found a dig in my original tyres and my MOT was the next day so needed something quick..... Like I said the post was purely to identify the style of wheels
