    FS: Rial mesh (old school) 16x8 +11 w/ tires

    It pains me to do this but my collection has gotten too large, and I really prefer 17"+ wheels on my E36.

    I am selling my Rial mesh wheels. These are rare in and of themselves, however even more rare in 5x120 (most were 5x130). Included in the sale are five (5) rims, four (4) tires, and four (4) centercaps. Yes, there is a spare rim included with the sale. The specs are as follows:

    Front
    PCD:
    5x120
    Size: 16x8"
    Offset: ET11
    Centerbore: 72.5mm
    Tire model: Falken ZE512 w/ less than 1k miles
    Tire size: 205/50-16

    Rear
    PCD:
    5x120
    Size: 16x8"
    Offset: ET11
    Centerbore: 72.5mm
    Tire model: Falken ZE512 w/ less than 1k miles
    Tire size: 225/45-16

    The rims are in very good shape considering they are 20+ years old. The centers feature their original silver paint, and thus have a few chips and stains but nothing too noticable. The center on the front right rim has a few black marks I haven't been able to get off, but I haven't tried very hard.

    The lips were professionally stripped and mirror polished about 6 months ago. They are nearly perfect still, not no curb rash and maybe one or two nearly invisible scratches. The lips are not clear-coated and thus can be wet sanded & repolished as often as you prefer.

    I custom made the center caps since you can't buy them anymore and they feature chrome vinyl Rial logos. I also have silver and gold Rial stickers that I can include if you'd like to change the color of the caps. There are only 4 caps even though there are 5 wheels.

    All 4 wheels will need to be rebalanced. The clearance on my E36 328i brakes was tight enough that it knocked off the weights from the inner barrel slant, thus creating a vibration above 70mph. It shouldn't be more than $20-30 to have them rebalanced at your local tire shop.

    There are no visual bends on any of the 4 rims with tires so I have to assume that once re-balanced they will ride smooth again. My tire guy told me they balanced out fine originally, but upon mounting them I knew the weights were going to be knocked off. The 5th rim, the spare, has a slight bend on the inner barrel.

    Price: $1,500 plus shipping from 33401. Local pickup prefered. Willing to split up the wheels and tires if I can secure deposits for both first. No credit card payments with Paypal as my account is a basic account, money orders prefered.











    This shows the dish, but is before they were polished. It's also the original center cap, which I only had 2 of, so the ones included look different:

            Would they fit, et11 and 8", I would think they wouldnt?

            As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
            You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                        Wow, I've never seen wheels that struck me right off as perfect. Props to whoever gets these classy gems.
