Hey, if you can't find a local buyer and you have to ship, find your nearest greyhound station. I've shipped wheels the same way.

- bubble wrap plus cardboard over the face and inner barrel (taped to tire)
- then get that massive 'cling wrap' for commercial shipping purposes
- and wrap the whole wheel

Then just take the individual wheels to a greyhound station, but call ahead or go to their website to make sure that location has someone on duty and ships.

Drastically cheaper. The buyer will still need to provide their address and phone number and live close enough to a greyhound station. Greyhound will call them when they get there.

If you're ever in Chicagoland, let me know, I'd really love to see if one of these fits over my front brakes. And if you can find the offsets (should be inside the wheel), are they around 20mm front and rear?

Great advice, i hadnt thought of that, thanks.
As for the BBK question, I doubt you'll have an issue. I have ST60/40 and there's more than enough room.
I've got the car in the shop getting the bearings changed but should have it back this weekend so I'll pull the wheels and check for offsets and update the post.
Thanks again!

I have a custom brake setup using 400mm F10 M5 rotors and calipers up front. Most 19" wheels do not clear.

Good Lord Yeah, not sure in that case. I've got a few people asking about them so I'm going to pull them off this weekend if I have time and I'll send you specs and post additional pics.

I don't know which bracket he's using, but if you go to ECS's website, there's a template for the F10 M5 BBK retrofit at 382mm for rotor size. Could print and fit into the wheel for some perspective.

Thanks. Once I get them off I'll try to give an idea of the size.

Any word on this? I'm curious because more and more people are buying the M5 retrofit. Might help with a potential buyer that's on the fence.

GLWS, OP!

Thanks for the info. no offsets posted inside that I could see. The wheels are currently off the market though. Now that I'm on coilovers they just look too good to sell, haha.

For future reference, those with the ECS M5 front brake kit should have no problem running any 19s, these included. Even though your wheels aren't for sale anymore (glad you kept them, they're great wheels) I just wanted to address any confusion. I do not have the ECS kit. I built a custom caliper bracket using the M5 400mm rotors and 6 pot calipers. That's why I was asking about clearances. Most 19" wheels do not clear the M5's brakes. ECS's kit uses custom 382mm rotors with the M5 calipers and should fit most if not all 19s.

Cool, good to know. Thanks.
