Hey gang.
Looking to upgrade my Orient Blue 2004 530i which hasstar spoke 17's at present.
I checked on the BMW website at 18 inch genuine wheels.
What do you think of style 32? Do we know if they are off an earlier model car?
What would you guys recommend?

Hi
I did endless investigations into OEM wheels, got frustrated in the end, might have gone OEM but the dealer never had them etc etc, in the end went for 19" M style replicas - and have never looked back! www.dtm.co.nz - click on M-style
Cheers

I have also have good experiences with replica wheels on my other mimmers. However with this car I didn't want to comprimise the great ride by going away from OEM. But do you think it would be okay?
