For them to be real, you would have wheel spacers in there. Take a wheel out and check it.

Even so, the lack of the ///M sticker leads me to think they are replicas.

Isn't that an Alpina badge?

I didn't see those wheels in the E39 or E46 catalog.

Now that you mention it, they don't look exactly like the m3 ones I thought.
