Hello familia,

Where would I find brand new style M135 wheels? I tried searching, but most of you seem to buy/swap used ones. Is there a place where's it's competitively priced (aka not stealership prices)? I'm looking forward to a square setup and would rather go new than used. No skimping when it comes to tires and wheels for this guy!!

Thanks

Tischer is where I would check.

Or plug the p/n into ECS, or bmwpartstore.

Damn! Those prices are still really high - I should've known. Thanks for the info Dane. I'll consider it.

Consider used ones.

Bav ... What if you refinish your current wheels ? Just my two cents.

Buying new ones is kinda useless, honestly. Just refinish your current wheels. If you buy new ones, they are bound to get damaged one way or another, only difference being the amount of money you spent.

I'm actually gunning for a square setup, so I would have to purchase 2 wheels (fronts). By the looks of it, used... I've never bought used wheels (or tires) before, but I've never owned a BMW or higher-end car before this either.

Swap someone fronts for rears. I know I'd be interested in going square 8.5".

Generally the biggest thing you need to check for are bends. If it's bent, not worth it to deal with since it'll tack on another $125-150 each; but refinishing wheels is very easy and fairly cost-effective. It's usually about $100-ish a wheel, sometimes cheaper depending on where you go, and it'll come out brand-spanking new. Shoot, you could almost make a high-profit business purchasing heavily scratched wheels, getting them refinished (or even refinishing them yourself) and re-selling them.

I bought a set (of Style 197s) for my wife's 335 at Wheelership.com. They are "refurbished", do look new and are guaranteed to be true. (whatever that means)
