don't know.. it's the OEM wheels i had when i got the car but haven't had them on in 6-7 months
i wouldnt use them man, i had the same problem this week with my new wheels. decided not to risk it. trust me i rather pay more to get some other wheels than risk doing damage to my car

), I have had a few rims repair in my day to save money. Best bet if you dont want to get a new rim, either have it repaired and use it until youre ready for a new rim, then use it as a spare or go online to a place called detriot wheel and tire, they sell both new and used.GL
I bent mine also, hit a pothole last week pretty had. Didn't think anymore about it until my flat tire indicator came on. So I put air in it drove it later again that week and it came on again. So I sad let me rake off the wheel and check it out. Long story short, I have the same exact crack. Took it to wheel shop and they said it would cost about 145.00 to fix. Of course it's bent to. I read on the bimmerfest these wheels are prone to getting bent and cracked.
