My mom's boss sold his 2011 328i and still has the wheels. He asked me to try and see if I can sell them. Since I don't have the wheels, I don't know any of the specs. I have no clue what to even ask for them. If anyone could identify them for me or let me know the specs that would be great. And if you could give me a reasonable asking price that'd be even better. Thanks in advance for any help.

Here's some pictures of the wheels

I'm pretty sure E90 wheels will fit E46 and E36 ... so 3 Series from '92 to 2011. They're snow tires (look like Blizzaks) with about 40%-ish tread life remaining. They look like 17". If they are, that setup runs obout $1200 on Tire Rack. Ask $4-500 for the set.

No. E90 wheels have offsets of 35/37 mm, while E46 (and I think E36) have 47 mm offsets. They will bolt on, but you need a 10 mm hub-centric spacer to work right.

Look at the last 4 digits of the DOT number on the tire as well it will tell you the manufacturing date which can greatly affect its value. (The last 2 digits is the year).

Oh and the back side of the rim usually in the spokes will tell you the rim size and width. Example: 17X7.5

Should be stamped inside the rim with specs, these look like my winter set up, ASA rims from tire rack with blizzacks. Look up ASA winter rims in google images and it is the exact wheel you have there. goodluck

This is your wheel:
455551455551http://www.tirerack.com/upgrade_garage/BigPic.jsp?wheelMake=Sport+Edition&wheelModel=A7&wheelFinish=Silver+Painted

17x7.5 +32mm

normal price is $109 per wheel but on sale right now for $89

I would ask $400 at most.
