Hi

I'm a new member, and I recently imported a 530d Touring from Germany to Norway. The car has M-pack with standard 18" m-alloy wheels. I will keep these wheels as winter wheels, but for summer I want to buy 19" Hartge Classic 2 replica. Here in Norway I have not seen these wheels in any shop except for genuine Hartge wheels (very expensive). Is there anybody out there who can tell me where to buy these wheels:

I found someone at BM Styling in UK, but the price was quite high when I included shipping costs (? 900). You can see a photo of the wheel here:

I think they are discontinued. I seen them at modbargains.com, but they are for xi models. The company that makes them is Linea Course.

First off, welcome on board and enjoy the forums!
(Great choice of car - I just imported a 530d Touring M-Sport from Germany to Denmark )

The quote is pretty damned good in the link you posted; GBP 900 for rims and tyres. Not sure if you are going to find much better than that, maybe if you are lucky on Ebay? I did a quick Google search in Germany with "Hartge Felgen" (Hartge wheels) and could only find reps on www.FelgenOutlet.de without tyres for around EUR1100. On Ebay there is an original set without tyres for EUR1100. Otherwise the other places I researched when shopping for wheels myself only carry originals.
Looks like you may have already found a pretty good price

In my opinion, the 900 pound is indeed already quite cheap.
I would wonder if they are European replicas or Chinese ones.

Thanks for many great answers. It looks like my offer from BM Styling is not that bad, but it is without tyres.
I can not find the original Hartge wheels you where telling me about on Ebay. I searched the German Ebay for "Hartge felgen", but no hit for classic II. Can you send me a link?

The link you posted from BM Styling states:
------------
Hartge Classic Replica Alloys. 8.5j. 1/3/5 series.
19" with tyres - ?879.99
19" without - ?649.99
----------------------
Or have they now quoted you a different price to what they advertise?

As for Ebay, go to Ebay germany (www.ebay.de) and enter "Hartge 19". There are a couple of offers for around EUR 800-900. http://cgi.ebay.de/4-Original-Hartge-Felgen-8-5x-19-BMW-E39-M5-E60-E61-E38_W0QQitemZ330340620189QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAuto_Felgen?hash=item4ce9d5d79d&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1229%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 is offering originals for EUR 900 with ET15, which would be just perfect for an E61 -- no spacers need to get distance from the inner rear air suspension or to get them nice and close to the arch They are without tyres, but they claim to be original!

Good luck with the search. Just PM me if you need any help understanding any of the German offers
