Are those OEM BMW rims, and if so can you confirm the model?

They are OEM's. I am sorry I don't have the Type number. Had them off my old X3. Tint is 50%.

Tires are the same as elimpfor
The wheels Graz-RTX
Their website is www.rtxwheels.com
You can get them in 18" and 19"



Here they are on my car (18")

Did you get the 8" or 9" wide wheels?

Are you still happy with the set up? Is the finish durable?

Thanks. Duke

Very happy with the wheels as I find they looked great when I had my winters on last winter. I can't really say if the finish is durable because I only got the car on feb 29th and so they did not really go through a full winter.

Cheers

Ok thanks. I went with the same wheels although I nearly went with the 19" versions but I did not like the winter tire options for "19 tires -- I wanted a straight setup and RF tires.

My wheels and tires (Hakka R2) are being mounted in the next week or so.

Thanks. Duke

Thanks for the picture of these on your car...I am considering them in 19 (satin black) for my winter set...it was helpful to see them installed.

Hey friends,
Im sure no ones got a setup smaller than mine lol but they work awesome and I love these tires, they dont look small at all in person since the rims have similar width as our OEM 20s and more importantly it was for an awesome price

I got 235/60/r17 on bridgestone blizzak ws80.

With all new tires n rims balance and installed all for $1270 CAD taxes in with a 70 rebate as well. ?cant complain.

Have any pictures?
Wondering if there is a noticeable difference with 18" wheels.
Oh and what wheels did you get?

I am happy with the 18" wheels though. The thicker tires are much smoother over rough, cracked pavement that the 20" ones. However, you can feel the slight mushiness when turning that is not there with the summer tires/wheels.

Here's my winter setup installed:



Can't wait to see how it performs!

I ordered 19 inch M3 replica wheels for my winter setup. Was planning on going with Blizzak LM-32's for the tires (performance winter). Local tire shop is recommending Nokian WRG3 tires instead. These are "all weather" tires but supposedly are more like snow tires. Just wondering if anyone here has had both and has a preference? We don't get a ton of snow usually in southwestern CT so most of the usage will be on cold dry/wet pavement.
