Guest Spottswoode Report post Posted February 22, 2009 Oh, they come with a car as well! http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-203066267.htm Not sure on the sizing of the wheels, but they look to be at least 8.5" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martyyn 2 Report post Posted February 22, 2009 Im not entirely sure but I remember reading somewhere that replicas have BMW center caps and genuines wheels have Schnitzers because they are a different size. Is that correct ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spottswoode Report post Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) OZ racing made the earlier Schnitzer wheels, so I guess it's possible. But they use a different type of bolt with an unusual head for their split rims - you actually need to buy the tools from OZ to pull them apart. And those are definitely OZ Racing bolts.

Yuen 16 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Im not entirely sure but I remember reading somewhere that replicas have BMW center caps and genuines wheels have Schnitzers because they are a different size. Is that correct ? Can confirm that on my old wheels, the Schnitzer centre caps were a different size to my BMW centre caps but I'm not sure if the BMW ones also come in different sizes. From pic 4 it seems that the BMW logo is misaligned on the centre cap which suggests it's a sticker? So they could be genuine wheels with ACS caps but I can't tell from the pictures.

Yep , OZ first then by Ronal , only the two genuine genuine A C Schnitzer forgers that are known. Replicas are cast usually. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Spottswoode Report post Posted February 25, 2009 OZ split rims were forged, unsure about OZ one piece. Ronals are cast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
