I was at the local U-Pull the other day looking for brake parts for my folks 2000 Astro when I ran across this thing again. It has been there months and I noticed the M Sport wheels look just like the M3 pieces. Are these worth anything? Other than some heavy brake dust, minor dings and scratches, they’re actually in pretty good shape. I think a quick bead blast would have them looking very nice. Oppinions?

BONUS! Sharknose for your time

I believe those were only available on the 1995 M3.

So they’re rare, worth something and deserve more than becoming scrap aluminum?

Those wheels are worth a buck or two.

U-Pulls don’t care about rarity. They make their money on the metal leaving the yard. We’re lucky they give us a chance at it first.

I want them for my 325is! Those only came on the 3.0L ‘95 M3.

You could easily get a couple hundred bucks for them... and media blasting is pretty cheap, but how much does the u-pull want for a full set of wheels?

I’ll call them up and inquire. I was surprised to see them there, but I’m not the brightest on Bimmers and had no idea whether they were actually special or not.

What kind of monster puts a 6-series in the junkyard?

Someone with either a small wallet or a short temper.

I’ll see what they’re wanting and let you know.

I sold my Double Spoke IIs, the 96+ version of those that is way less uncommon, for $300 and they were in way worse condition. If that gives you any idea on their value.

They might be worth saving. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E36-E46-318ti-325i-M3-OEM-Forged-DS1-Double-Spoke-Motorsport-17-Wheels-Rims-/222319614590?hash=item33c3481a7e:g:y7oAAOSwB09YF4vF&vxp=mtr

That’s laughable. they are worth a bit though. 600 on a good day.
