Style 162/Group Buy?

Just a thought… Since by the recent poles and the general agreement of most contributors on the BMW forums as to the preference of the style 162 on the new E90 why not get those interested together and see if we can find someone to do a group buy?
I am still not sure how I feel about run flat vs. non but we all know the reason BMW and the other car manufactures have for going to them is $$$$ and weight.
I would hate to have a flat in the middle of nowhere (even with a patch kit) and be at the mercy of a local gas station for a replacement run flat tire at ANY price.

i've actually been thinking of buying a 2nd set of 162's for my winter tires. i can't find any wheels i really like for winter. so then i'd have a set of 162's with summer tires, and one with winter.

I wonder if Jwocky can put up a sticky where people can post if they want 162's.

if you guys arrange the group buy (ie. find a store, a price, etc), contact jwocky or me and we can probably set up a sticky for you

Group buy

I have already started looking!

Haven't found anyone even willing to order one set let alone 10 or more.

Will keep at it!
