Anyone have any thoughts on this:
I wanna get either 124 style wheels or m5 style (126 I think) I know I can get 124 wheel and tire take offs for about 1200 but I can get a set of replica wheels only for 600 (m5) anyone have any thoughts on replicas??

Im looking to sell my wheels and tires aswell.
Great ride - looks fantastic - good work on the wax front!
Funny, I was just going to comment on how good the wheels looked, especially as you don't see too many with the 123s (-correct?). As for the 166s, they'll look awesome on your ride

Enjoy...

mine are reps, manufactured in Germany with TUV type approval. Top quality same look. Have been using reps on different cars over the years, but only with traceable heritage and TUV type approval and never had a problem.

One more thing, if e.g. BBS produces a BMW style copy wheel, you call it replica and people will moan. You sell it as a BBS wheel and the same people rave about the quality.

Here's a pic of my german "reps"

SORRY, forgot to say , luvverly motor you got there
