closest thing to the 261M's and you shave quite a bit off the price just for the lack of ///M badge i'm sure

They also do these in black OEM

Wow. I was unaware that these existed! I like the 261's but these are very similar!

God knows. Quite a bad move by them if you ask me. Especially after they charge so much for the "M" badge, it should come with some sort of exclusivity..

Anyways the OEM gloss back of these look pretty neat imo

No pictures. But I am sure they sell "refinished" wheels that may be up to par with "new" wheels. Not sure though.

So far really loving the look and improved handling with the Yoko-S drive tires, despite them being quite noisy when decelerating.

//M wheels are always lighter and stronger than the regular (BMW) wheels. A wheel is more than just being round and silver(color).


Here is a good data base to look up various BMW wheels...
