Selling AP1 rims for Rota slipstreams?
I have a guy wanting to buy my stock rims for $600+, I can get a set of new flat black Rota Slipstreams for $550 shipped.
The buyer of my AP1's doesn't want my tires so I can throw them on the new rims until I buy some new rubber in the next month.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this?
Anyone local interested in my AP1 rims for about the $600 range or a little more if I throw in the tires?
Thanks,
Robert

Where did you find the Rotas for $550?
BTW: Everone else... An extra set of stock rims, is advisable, if you want to autocross regularly.

That seems to be the going rate, I can't honestly remember which retailer I called yesterday but I should be getting an e-mail with the info from them today.
I told hem I wanted confirmation of the offsets, etc.
I can get you a set for $600

The only thing you have to be careful about with the rotas is just be careful not to hit any potholes or anything. I have seen some break before, so they are indeed very light, but they are also not very strong. I believe the Kosei K1 wheels are pretty light and seem to hold up a little better than the slipstreams while also being inexpensive. Or if you feel like spending more money that opens you up to a whole world of stronger lightweight wheels

I got too much going on right now and I'd just want to dump them in favor of some nicer 17" rims after christmas so I think I'm going to stick with stockers and just get some newer rubber.

Weren't you the one wanting the CCW's?
Funny you post that picture, my old M3 turbo was red with carbon fiber hood and black 18" rims with a red line around the lip.
Picture somewhere on one of these BMW boards...
