I've got a 2002 330Ci convertible. The previous own put on staggered wheels with a small M tag. They are 18X9.5 wheels. Somehow I broke the inside rim of a wheel without damaging the tire. I've looked all over the web and have not been able to find the style number for the wheels. They look like style 359, but it seems all 359's are 19s. I don't know how to tell if they are fake M wheels. I'm attaching a picture I took last night.
If anyone knows which wheels these are please let me know. I need to buy a new one.
Did you get the spec off the wheel itself? A genuine BMW wheel should have BMW stamped on it, maybe even OEM I think.
They look like 163's but your size doesn't match.

They also look like 359s. I've found 359 18" wheels on eBay, but I just need one. I found one in Finland and they wanted 550 euros for it. This is getting interesting. Thanks for replying.
I'm just trying to replace one rear wheel. I don't even really like them that much. I do want them to match.
Look up Alzor style 030
Wheel repair places will usually weld cracked wheels if not too bad. May be cheaper than a new wheel.

All BMW wheels will have a partial part number cast in to the wheel like 1 234 765, if you look up the wheel you think it is the partial part number will be in the parts diagram but with the full part number
IMG_2548.JPGI'm attaching a picture of the inside. I don't see a BMW stamp or what appears to be the type of part # you describe. They might be fake, but they do have the M emblem on the outside.I just looked at the inside of my style 45s and the printings, location and size are much different in look.
