Bay Area: Borrow F30 18"+ wheels for car to sit on? No Driving

goj · 07-20-2019, 05:47 PM

Hey everyone -

I need to send in my HRE wheels due to an issue with the finish on most of the wheels. They will be refinishing them, so i need a set of wheels to park the car on for 7-10 days while I send in mine.

I would not be driving all and car would be parked in garage while I drive my truck.

Good luck. Might be easier to borrow four jackstands.

I loaned my winter set out to someone in a similar situation like you. Sadly I don’t think anyone near you has winter setups.

Try posting your request in a (yes, I will say it) Facebook thing. More people use FB than we think.

I'm in a similar situation and am just considering buying a set of stocks. I regret storing my stock wheels at my parent's in LA now

Don't you have friends with track wheel sets that you can borrow?

I've got a set of thrashed EC-7s off an E90, one is cracked & bent and the offset be off, but they'll bolt up fine. For your purposes, they ought to work in a pinch. I don't have any means of transport though, so you'd have to have a way to pick them up and bring them back.
