2004 545i alpine white with sport package - automobile heaven
I've really taken a liking to the 167 style wheels. I plan on keeping my sport suspension and only will add the oem carbon fiber front piece(painted to match though). does anyone have a pic of a stock body apline white with sport suspension on 167 style wheels?? if not white than any other color would do as long as its a stock body on sport suspension. it would help me out a lot.
also is there a big difference between the look of replicas and oem? i read about the risk of vibration issues but the cost is a huge difference between the two.
any thoughts on this ebay auction??

OE are 19x9.5 rear 19x8.5 fronts ,OE doesnt make 20's in the M6 wheels
nice picture, thanks for all the replies. i was thinking the same thing when i saw the picture though, that it comes in 19s only. i assume your 20s are replicas and that you are having problems with them??
