2. Are they original - does bmw sell them chromed or did some chrome them?

Could I get these rims and just put on the 225's that came on the 138 rims?

Do you have a source for the data? Which wheels are available in the different offsets?

Now that I am well informed I went to the Tire rack and looked for wheels. Leeb3 is right. If you select and 05 525i and look at teh wheels specs and the 17 inch rims the offsets were 15-18mm. When I used a 2006 525xi I got a different set of rims with an offset of 40mm.
