Default What style rims do I have?

I know that they are M3 rims but I want to know the style name. Does anyone know?

I would just like to point out how strong stock BMW rims are. I have DS1s on my Ti and this past saturday I hit some debris in the road and ripped out the sidewall on one of my tyres. Limped the car along the shoulder for FIVE (5!) miles with a shredded tyres barely hanging on. Because the bead never seperated from the rim, the car rode on that instead of the aluminum. NOT A MARK on the rim at all.

They may be strong but my DS1s bent easily.
They are also heavy as hell.

Is there a list or chart or anything that lists the different styles of rims with a picture along with it or anything of that sort? Or maybe even a Wiki on BMW style rims?

AKA 'Throwing Stars.'
Somebody makes a replica that fits the E30. Dunno if there's anything for the E36.
