Hey everyone:

Have they increased the prices of the wheels? A few months ago it seemed that Garry and Tischer were selling the 172s for a few hundred less than they are now.

I guess I should have bought them then.

Not just 172s. All the rim styles are more expensive than before. BMW increased the price across the board.

Sorry, but not interested in the replicas, although that is a great price. I am even skeptical about the reconditioned rims from the other places, but I am willing to go reconditioned if its going to save me over $500
