Do I Keep My Cool Alloys?!

[rafi87]

Hi all,

I have just purchased a BMW 116i sport and it came with 19 inch M6 alloy wheels. These wheels are really cool and in excellent condition.

My only concern is about how much I will have to pay if i need to replace a tyre?

Also, do I have to declare this on my car insurance?

To be honest, I am not too fussed to keep them, as it really gives a bumpy ride on small pot-holed side streets (though they are fantastic on the main roads and motorways!)

Does anyone know how much they are worth if I decide to sell them, and also how much would it cost top replace them with a set of standard 16inch wheels?

Thank you so much in anticipation of your help!

If you really wanna bugger up the ride, put run flats on it! Worse thing I ever did to the E39, Personally they are not to my taste, however I have seen MUCH worse. However I feel now you have got used to the car on 19`s, fitting smaller wheels would look tiny
