Default where can i find these wheels?



They were on Ebay awhile ago, buddy said he only had 3 of them... so i never looked into finding a 4th...
I know they are made by MIM and are likely not an actual BMW wheel, Im not sure... also discontinued IIRC, just thought id check around.

anyone?

Those look very much like AMG wheels, and are probably in 5x112 bolt pattern. The centercap doesn't look right either - another reason I say these are Benz wheels (which have a larger centercap than BMW). Good luck finding them if they are 5x120 - they would look hot on a ti.

Could also be a replica. In the early to mid 90's those style of wheels were very popular.
