Thumbs up

Where is the best place to buy OEM rims? I recently placed an order with BMWWheels.com but a little miffed at the way they are handeling the order so far. They are a large auto dealer in Pheonix and not designed for online purchases.

What site works best?

I am so very happy with tirerack.com, but they do not have OEM rims.

Call you dealer and ask them to match the price. I'm sure they're willing to do it

ask your local BMWCCA chapter which dealerships offer the best discounts to members. A couple of dealerships in my area offer better prices than BMWwheels without even negotiating, and that is far better than prices quoted in this forum.

Circle BMW in NJ will give you essentially the same discount as Chapman (BMWwheels.com) but they cannot ship them out of state (?) Other than that any employee of a BMW dealership gets the same discount. Pressure your sales person to assist. I too am not happy with BMWwheels right now. I ordered my 166 rims there while waiting for my car to arrive. Received the 4 rims no problem. But I just ordered one more 166 style wheel last week (don't ask) and they can't even provide me with a tracking number 5 business days after I ordered the wheel (with the optional 3-6 day shipping)! My car is ate the dealer until I receive this wheel! I guess you can't complain too much considering the savings involved.

Good luck
