    Default Rondell Wheels On The West Coast

    I am seriously thinking of picking up a set of Rondell #58's but would like to purchase from a distributor on the west coast, preferably in the Northwest.

    I have been surfing for a couple of hours and all I have found is The Wheel Exchange located in North Carolina that has what I am looking for. Shipping can't be cheap.

    Anyone know of a more local distributor for me?

    Thanks,
    DJ

    I thought there was a set recently on the puget sound cca site. http://www.bmwpugetsound.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=10
    There are usually some interesting wheels & parts there. I miss that community since moving to sacremento burbs.

    Rondell wheels are imported exclusively by the "The Wheel Exchange".......there is another source, but I don't know if the pricing is any better. Try Bekker's Imports in Georgia. The owner, Jos Bekker, receives a weekly container imported directly from Germany and was the original Rondell importer, albiet grey market importer as Rondell didn't have an official US distributor before The Wheel Exchange stepped-up......one last thing, those wheels weigh a ton when compared to modern day wheels....but the look, or should I say the large lip, is quite enticing.

    Default Hi

    I have a set of Rondell 58's on my M5. They are virtually new. No rash. Less than 3000 miles on them. They have Michelin PS2s on there.

    Im thinking of selling. What could I get for them?

    What size?
    The price of the wheels and cost of tires differ quite a bit between 17 and 18"

    They can't weigh much more than the Bayern copies I have on my car now. They are 8 X 17 all around.
    So far I have been living with it for the kind of driving I do, it doesn't make that much difference to me.

    Wheel Exchange has 8.5 X 17's- et13 on sale for 750.00 plus shipping


    The lip is indeed enticing!

    Thanks for the info PML.

    I talked Adam down to 700 for a set of two 17x8.5 and two 17x10 just about three months ago.
