Correct - the offset is for RWD e60! You should be looking for wheels with 35+ offset

This is not my auction. I have no idea if there are others. I found this browsing ebay for style 124's and thought this was a great deal for someone, so I posted it. I am in no way, shape, or form affilated with this person. I just thought the price was excellent!

Then i apologize, but everyone else beware........ I went to Ebay and did a quick search and found 3 other sellers with 3 different user names selling OEM M5 wheels. They all have different prices and the description is slightly different also but they are all using the same identical photos which raises an eyebrow.

I just did the same search and found five sets. Three of which are sold by eiwieswheels, which I can vouch for since I sold my Xenon headlights to him. His prices are also in the $2000+ range. Aside form him there are just one more set. This set has different pictures than the other similar auction, which is also similarly priced. IMHO, I don't think it is a scam.

I have lifted pictures of things I've sold on ebay and reused, though your point is very valid and if a member is looking to buy these, they should request more photos or at a minimum, certainly use paypal for protection. Good detective work .. We gotta watch out for each other!!
