Where is a good place state-side to buy factory BMW parts? Currently, I need an alloy wheel for my 2008 550i (part no. 36-11-8-036-948), but really I am looking for the place to get any parts I may need going forward.
Is ordering through my local dealer the only way? I'd like to reward my business to whomever is offering the best prices.
Thanks.

As others have said, there is a sticky at the top of this forum with information about BMW of Newport (Gary Romani).

Also, many dealers offer a parts discount if you're a BMW CCA member so you may be able to do some shopping locally as well if you're a member. (You can obviously join the club just for the discounts too...)
Good luck!
