[silverlea 0]

I have been looking around for some 18inch rims (M5 pattern) for my 540i. Does anyone out there have some ideas. Chers

Correct me if I'm wrong..but I think that Blair (Napier E36) has 18" M5 Replica's on his E36.

I'm sure he will fill you in on their attirbutes.

Cheers

i got mine thru magwarehouse.com, they cost me $2800, but that was on apecial. (they had just opened a store in hastings, and I know the dude who runs the place) I highly reccomend them, they are extremely sexy... as im sure most people here would agree!

If you are putting them on your 540 best get genuine M5 wheels.

The replica's only come in 18x8" where as the OEM ones are 18x8" front and 18x9.5" rear (the rears ahave a nice big dish on them so it is easy to spot the fakies).

Besides you can't fit anything wider that a 245/40 on a 8" rim = ghey, on a beasty 540.

Here is a pic of a E34 M5 with the E39 M5 Wheels (genuine ones that is), note the lovely dish on the rears.

Does yours already have the motorsport 17's?? 17x8" front & 17x9" rears??
