Are these wheels desirable in the BMW world?

It depends on whether you're talking about intrinsic value, or by weight.
By weight, there's a lot of aluminum there.
To my untrained eye they look like these.
In reply to Tyler H:
Well, there is that. I was thinking I could snag the car then sell the wheels and make my some or hopefully most of money back then slap on some cheap wheels and have an Autocross beater at almost $0 invested.
Meh. They are OK. $75-100 per wheel in good shape if they are the 19x8 ET47 E46 M3 wheels.
I have been looking around in the used market for BMW wheels of that size and offset. No style preference, just scrounging for a budget set of track wheels for wet tires. There seem to be far more sellers than buyers.
Bummer. I was hoping I had stumbled onto a pot o' gold.

If it's a cheap 318ti in the Midwest odds are it's a bucket o' rust.

I know what happened:
Now look, The_Jed. The trade for the uniforms I can understand. But to buy this 318, you got to be crazy! It's a piece of junk. The coolant system breaks all over the place! It's a piece of junk!

Love that movie, and the theme song is catchy too.
Maybe this guy's a Republican...
