I am thinking about some 17"x8" 5x120 BBS Style 5 wheels with tires. Wonder what people here have paid for them with or without tires. I think they are the best looking wheels on an E34.
Thanks in advance...

I've looked around alot for those, and nice ones go for about 800-1000 U.S., often without tires. A bit less for 16 inch.

OK, thanks then. Hadn't really looked much, but always liked how they look.

Nice set on eBay, wondering how high they might go.

Depends who's going for them at the time I guess... that varies a bit these days

Fair enough. Couple of nice sets in LA at great prices

some (or maybe all)style 5s will have a hub id of 74.1 so to fit on your e34 you will need hubcentric rings to space them down to 72.5

style 5's are definitely top 3 oem wheels for e34

Try craigslist for used sets if your not into paying an arm and a leg for them at the dealership... I just picked up a complete set of Staggered 17s Style 32's for less than the replacement cost of only one from the dealers

good luck on your hunt...

I will be running hubcentric rings as well since my set was off an e39

I bought a set (4) about 6 months ago, some rash, clear peeling, for $500. I've got two of them polished, rash fixed and the centers are going to a buddy who paints cars for a dark grey paint tomorrow; the other two will get polished/painted as time permits...probably before the S50 is ready to drop in my 525it...maybe.
