What do you guys think ? This seems like a ridiculous deal for OEM 175s..

You're right, too good to be true.
Those are not OEM wheels.

edit: Actually the information admits they're not OEM, just "OE-style". And the style they're imitating is style 166 wheels.

You're purchasing a (set) of 19" OE-Style Wheels for BMW.


Which says two things: they are OEM style, not OEM. They probably aren't as good in quality and make.
