Question about style 375 Wheels
I want to get the style 375 wheels which a local BMW tuner has in stock and offering to sell at an acceptable price (which is lower than BMW dealer prices by atleast 20pc). I have known the owner for a few years and do trust him but want to do my research before pulling the trigger.
http://www.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/topics/ow...ryId=9347.html Some questions for the experts: 1) I have seen some pictures of the wheels with "BMW Performance" etched on the rims. The seller claims only the older E70 version has the writing, the F15 version doesn't. Can anyone verify this? I thought the wheels where the same and the website says the logo is etched, but not sure. Here is a pic of the 'older' version": But on the BMW website the pics are not clear: 2) Is there any way looking at the wheels to make sure they are genuine and not replicas? 3) The tires on offer are PZero runflats. I live in a summer all year place so any issues? Any other tire I should consider? My car is F15 M Sport xdrive30d Mineral white with M adaptive suspension.

What do you have on your car now?
Will the new rims fit your X5? What are the specs of front and rear rims? There's BMW Style 599M replicas in 20" on eBay that IMHO, looks better than Style 375. |

Looks like the BMW Performance text is there in the pic with the white car as well.
Also in this pic http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-21...item3aaa2bb69a |

True, I have the exact wheels form the dealership. It has the "BMW Performance" on it and its embodied with the wheel, not like a sticker nor something lame looking. Bought the vehicle and wheels August of 2016. Only thing I was iffy about is the "M" emblem which appears on the brochure but not on the wheel itself.
