going to look at a set of used 167's that are oem not replicas are there any markings on the inside of the wheel that will let me know they are oem's not replicas?

Thanks

good choice for going with oem wheels id say. i remember from reading something before that another way to see the difference as said before by some is by the color of the wheel, the shade of the spokes and the inner part of it as well. and also, welcome and enjoy the forums.

Have a good friend who knows a BMW service writer and he had a customer who bought a new M6 and put new wheels on it.

Here you go didn't have a chance to clean them up yet, included a close up of one of the tires for anyone who might be intrested in them.
