I like these wheels a lot. I decided to go with 15" wheels, but had I wanted to go up to 16" wheels, these are the wheels I would have hunted for.

They cost closer to $3,300 new. Agreed - these are awesome. Very fair deal IMO.

Don’t ask me why I can remember this crap but can’t remember names 3 minutes after hearing them. H&B redid their website relatively recently and their parts are absent. As of January 2018, the wheels were $3,300. I can’t imagine that the price when down in that time, and @Sparky is quoted saying they are $900 ea.

H & B Restoration Tuning

Our experience with BMWs began in 1968, when we ordered our first BMW 2002. Over the years, Audi, BMW, and Mini have introduced wonderful cars, many of them instant classics. If you are fortunate enough to own one of the classics, it is still possible to bring it back to its fine original state...

out of curiosity i asked H+B for their current pricing ... and its now 850 each for fronts / 900 for rears ... or 3500 for all 4. so @Markos comment on being a fair price holds up.

Not putting down the seller's wheels-- which are awesome-- but they look like they need a full restoration. What do you think a shop would charge for doing a high level restoration on these?

It depends on what you need. You can have centers redone from $150 - $500 (total). Aluminum polishing is all over the board. It is relatively free/easy but time consuming to do yourself. I have friends that have lips professionally polished for $25 each. A wheel shop will charge magnitudes more. Aluminum is aluminum however, so shop around. You can also buy new lips for about $120 a corner.
