There are reps. for the M5 Type 166 OEM Wheel. General consensus is they are not as "identical" to OEM as say the M6 Reps. There is def. a noticeable difference between the rep and the original. IMHO I don't like the reps. If your going for the look of the 166 wheels, your better off going OEM.

+100 the 166 reps blow, dont do it!
If you absolutely must go reps, go Miro 346 (167 reps) the look almost like the real deal.

I just got the Miro 346's. Very happy with them, but If I didn't have an xi and was set on the 166's I'd definately go OEM. I probably would have gone OEM with the 167's too if I had a RWD, but once again they are very good reps and I'm more then happy with them so far.

One other option are the new E92 M3 Style Wheels we have available. They are very similar to the M5 wheels but with a split spoke and Machined Outer Spoke/Gunmetal Inner Spoke finish.

How much do they run?
