What are the best OEM BMW wheels ?

Hi

I have a M-Sport on order... i opted for the 19 inch wheels but think they are a touch dull so was thinking of swapping them out but only for authentic BMW rims... what were the best wheels???

I have attached a pic of some great looking ones but i have never seen them advertised

Those wheels aren't available for sale. They are concept wheels off the Concept ActiveHybrid F10 5-series. (see pics here: http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=356793)


You can see all of BMW's listed F10 5-series wheels here:

Great thread! i did search honest :-)

Shame those wheels are on a consept as they would look mint

The problem IMHO is that the uplift is crazy money to get to the 20" cross spoke... i was quoted £2,400 on top of the extra £1,600 i have paid for the 19" M-sports

I am just going to stick with refinishing the 19"s in high gloss black as thats only £250

Yep would love them (look better in black imo) but you are looking at near an extra 4k on top of the standard wheels... well thats the dealer quote

4k? Maybe at time of new purchase, but if you decide to do this later. You need to add tires and installation: $5,790.00 + tax. Maybe you can offset this cost by selling you tires and rims on Ebay, obviously more desirable if you have 19" sport rims & tires.

Cross Spoke 312 in Ferric Gray-Complete Set
Part number: 36 11 0 404 097
These 20 inch wheels are simple and understated, yet still draw attention! Cast with visbile wheel studs and coated with BMW Ferric Gray these wheels come in a complete set with four Runflat Pirelli Pzero RSC tires.
8.5J x 20 Front, 9J x 20 Rear.
535i Sedan
$5,641.00

$5,790.00 - Center Installation

* Installation charges will be applied at the time of installation.
Shopping Cart Total: $5,641.00

UK costs were higher, i was told it was to do with the fact that they were not a selectable upgrade so the dealer had to charge full wack with a minimal discount for the resell of my old rims
