Maybe someone on the forum can help.

You are correct. I ran in to that issue a few times when mine were up for sale

I am getting mine refinished as well as they are chipping but I told the dealer yesterday and they will call me on Tuesday when the wheel comes.

So you're getting them refinished by the dealer, or you got a new set of 172 wheels?

My Ride: Modded 2010 Carbon Black M5 SMG and Modded 2008 Dinan 550i Sport

I have a set of 172 OEM wheels from my 550i Sport for sale. Brand new refinish. Not a scratch. Just had them custom painted black with red pinstripe. Would look very hot on a white or jet black e60. Mine is Carbon Black and I preferred the machined finish look with the Carbon so I switched them. Paint is glossy outer with matte inner (no brake dust shows). Done by high dollar pro body shop and look very high end and classy. Cost for paint was $1K. That is what I'd like to sell them for but I'd consider offers. They are truly better than new. Set will include BMW center caps and M inserts (shown). You will need to by the TPM stems if your car is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitor.

This is a staggered set.

19x8.5 Front
19x9.5 Rear
