    That is some bullshit.  Those aren't cheap wheels to replace either.

          What wheels were removed?  Just the stockers?

          Robert, happen to have any wheels?

            I have a set of TSW's that are in OK shape.  An almost new set of Yokohamas are on them.  I was using them as a spare set to roll the car around.  My HRE's are on it now.  I'd sell them, but it would probably be cheaper to find a set of Stockers.

            What are the details on the car?  Year, miles, asking price?

              Also curious on the details of the car. What would the asking price be without wheels?

                      You wouldnt think that would be required for OE wheels on a 10+ year old car

                        Wheel locks will not guarantee that wheels don't get stolen. They are pretty easy to remove.

                              Why no 1.9L Z3 or any of the Z4 shifters? Those have the shortest throws

                                  Don't know, and don't know. Guess I never really looked into shifters much, because I didn't even realize they were all interchangable. Also curious about the threads, and why there are 3 different e46 shifters...

                                    Judging by the length of the bottom portions, I'd think the list goes bottom to top. Can anyone verify this?

                                      The ball is the pivot point so you want to look above that to properly judge the throw.  It's in the correct order.

                                        If the part below the ball is longer, the throw should be shorter as well.

                                          ^^ this is correct.

                                          For reference, the e36 M3 shifter is perfect for the e39 540i in my opinion. It made a huge difference in short crisp shifts without too short of a throw or too much effort.
