    What are these wheels?

    Hello, new to the forum, today I have seen wheels I would like to get on my e36 sedan. I was looking but can't find a clue what these wheels are. Does anybody know what are the front wheels on coupe? I would be happy! Thanks

    They look a lot like OEM contours, except with slightly less wheel material and bigger holes.

    You are right, they look quite similar on the photo, however in real life, they looked more like some two-piece Porsche wheels: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/D2BB...20009.jpg.html

    Those probably won't be OEM BMW rims as I thought firstly. IMO they look very good on E36 though.

    Hi,

    Those aren't OEM BMW wheels. They're a 2 piece wheel most likely and that 'design' for the centres are on various aftermarket wheel brands. They could be a Porsche wheel that's been converted from one to 3 piece as well.

    Sorry can't be more specific, it's due to that design being quite popular and plenty of cheap copycat type wheels as well.

    Cheers, Dennis!

    Look like OZ Mitos a bit, though they probably aren't even OZ.
