how come i don't have that in option when i purchase my car? Your M5 rims look great, but how is the balancing of the replicas? The reason I ask for is because I am considering a set of BMW M5 replicas rims, (where did you get yours at?), but want BMW OEM, but I don't want to pay their price $$$, ($2300.00) QUESTION: Can I get the same smooth BMW OEM ride with the M5 Replicas?
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,

You can get OEM style 166 for about $1600 either through Crevier BMW or BMW of Newport Rhode Island.
Who did you speak with at Crevier?? Did you use the roadfly discount???

Vaheh Bashikian. 714-835-3171 x2275. vbashikian@crevierbmw.com. Better to email him than call him. He works in the wholesale department. Just tell him you heard you can get OEM style 166 for $1600. I noticed that on roadfly he is a sponsor of the board after the fact. I think he will give discounts to just about everyone regardless if you're a member of roadfly or not. Every part I've ordered so far, I've stopped by and picked it up from him. He's a cool guy.

I've dealt with Vaheh quite a few times over the past few months. He's been great for answering questions and for getting me decent deals with honest shipping charges (non of this making $$ on shipping).
However, I just found out that Vaheh is no longer with the company anymore (2 weeks ago). I have found another good contact that has been equally good and has been a great help. His name is Kevin Martin at the same number (not sure of the extension). His e-mail is kmartin@crevierbmw.com
He's been just as cool as Vaheh and I'm sure he can provide a good price quote.
