Hello,
Does anyone have pics of a 528I or any >2005 5 series with 19" or 20" Z8 wheels (replicas)?
Please post pics if you have any. How relaible are replica wheels from Lakeshore Wheel & Tire?
Thinking of buy the staggered setup of Z8 replcia wheel #r89, 20 inch & 20x9 inch 20x10 inch.

 

welcome. hmm arent those style 89 wheels off of a 7 series? i tried searching for them on realoem and found these http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?mo...hg=36&fg=15 . anyway, youll get a lot of opinions about replical wheels. replicas have been known to present vibration issues if not with hubcentric rings, possible rubbings, paint flaking, and other issues as well. but some with replicas have been quite satisfied with them and have no or barely any issues to complain about. so i guess its hit or miss. good luck and enjoy the forums.

 

Those definitely aren't Z8 wheels.

The standard ones had 5 solid spokes per wheel (and looked naff, IMHO), while the Alpina V8 Roadster variant had 20-spoke Alpina "Dynamic" rims.

 

528i E60?

 

Fellas,

You are right. I mistook these for the alpina wheels of the Z8. thanks for the input.
BTW, yeah I do have a 2008 528i. The search for rims continues.

Thanks
