I saw on e90 post where someone had 19 inch 167 reps made by exclusive alloys and they bent one hitting a pothole within the first half hour or so of putting them on. Exclusive replaced the rim, but the guy had to pay for shipping, have the tire dismounted and remounted and then rebalanced. So it was a hassle and they were out of pocket some money as well.

No issues at all! No vibration, they look almost identical to stock, half the price. Do it!

The MIRO 346's are quality reps. Miro is one of only a handful of companies that makes good quality replica rims. I think the hubs will require centering rings though.....being 74.1mm and not 72.56.
