why dont check out the Miros, Many people around here recommend them? Cheaper and quality replicas. Many on this forum have them, check their sig. GL

Miros are good, but they are not hubcentric, so hubcentric rings are required if vibrations happened. Just keep this in mind.

Could you explain this a little bit better? I'm not entirely sure what that means, excuse my noobiness.
How about you give Trinity or Eurorev a call.

Another update, and another question...
I called BMW again as I'm also interested in potentially getting 172s, once again they never fail to amaze me with their prices, they've told me it would be $4000 for the set with tires... Where are they getting these numbers from? I'm certain Canadian dealerships are much much more expensive than American ones...
What do you guys think about 172's on my car?
Also, the guy on the phone told me the 172's wouldn't "work" with my car because it's an XI and it is all wheel drive... That doesn't make sense to me.. How does that affect whether or not the wheels fit?

'cuz XI model has a higher/bigger offset number than the RWD model. Due to the AWD setup the XI has 23mm addition to the hub.
You can put any OEM RWD wheels no problem but it'll protrude outside the fender and makes it look wrong. What you should be looking are the wheels from the E9x (3-series) if you want OEM setup those wheels will fit perfectly.

Canadian parts are way more expensive then US. If I were you I'd go for the Miro replica's. I had them and never had any vibrating issues, and they looked the exact same. I bought mine when the CND dollar was higher then US. I paid around $2300 CDN shipped. The rate isn't bad right now, I say contact Trinity and go for Miro's.
