  • How rare are these rims?

    Hi,

    i recently bought a set OZ Breyton:

    18x8,5 et 38
    18x10 et 32

    these are the original sizes but i have never seen an 18' set before, does someone knows more about this set and what they are worth (not in this condition but fully refurbished)?

    I've seen only a handful of 17s so I'd have to guess the 18s are pretty damn rare.

      yup, and i cant find any information on the web of a 18s set. So maybe they are 1 off?

        I believe they came on or were sold for 5 series BMW. I almost bought a 18" set (a few months back from Japan) and they are pretty rare.

        If you want to sell, let me know. I'd be interested either refinished or as-is.

          i've got more people who are interested in buying these, send me a pm and maybe we can work something out. i wasnt my intention on selling them but i would thought that they where so special.

          A little update:

          I refinished the faces, still not 100% about this color. i've kept the back side of the faces original because i would not damage the inscriptions. i've also been busy with the inner barrels and finished 1 with a special coat.

              They are not that rare at all, I see them very often.




              In my dreams.

              Great looking set of wheels.

                  What size outer rims are you looking for? I have (2) new 3.5" OZ Racing 40 bolt 18" outer rims that are clear anodized. I resized a set before I sold to make smaller. jdorociak@gmail.com Jim

                    I haven't seen 18's before, but I have read about them. I wonder if the faces are the same as the 17's or bigger.....the lips don't look to be upsized as such, so I'm assuming the faces are bigger.

                      thnx for your help, but i prefer a local buyer for lips because i would be to expensive.

                      The faces are bigger than 17´ so its not a custom build but a original wheel. where did you read about those rims? i'm very curious for more information about those wheels.

                        I can't remember where I read about them previously, it was a while ago when I was searching for some 17's.

                        In the write up for the Z4M on the S|W blog page the owner mentions he has some 18in Breytons for it, so I wonder if they are the same specs!?!?

                            So a little update on the Breytons, i´ve had the centers painted metal grey but i was not satisfied with the result so i decided to polish the centers and keep the vents metal grey, i finished 1 center so 3 to go:

                              18" Breytons are unicorn status=) I have a set of 17" and they are quite rare (even though they are popping up on e36's all over)

                              Stefan may have inquired about buying these from you, but this surely isn't the set that he currently has in transit
