That is really unlucky. It’s nice they are making a new set of wheels. You get two sets then?

I do, they said shipping back is not cost effective. I'm not real sure what to do with the ones made in Garmany. Probably sit on them until the new ones arrive.

I'm sure you could always sell it too for a discount cuz of the misspelling. I know there has to be some cheap duck that would run them that don't care 😁

825M replicas. 20x10 ET 25 Square with 275/40/20 DWS06+. Stock suspension. Not as much concavity as the OEM, but looks good and is the OEM+ look I was after.

I was just about to suggest this but wasn’t sure how to explain it without a photo. I’m glad you posted a photo

I’ll buy them if I can pay with $3 bills. Seriously… if owner wants to donate them to science then I will perform durability testing to see what these things are really made of.

received notification that my wheels will be delivered Tuesday 7/6.
I've got a set of 275/40R20 DWS6+ and TPMS sensors arriving this Thursday.

Just have to call the shop to schedule the mount and balance. Also looking to get them ceramic coated right away.

By me, the 826m seem like a real popular choice on a lot of the G8x models.

I haven't seen many on M40s other than the occasional X3m

They are a nice set of wheels though, don't let it take away from enjoying them.
