Guys, I m driving a 523i 2008 M Sport package now having dilemma on sports rim...currently my car came with m sport rim 18 inch old version...somehow I m so interested in the latest m sport rim spider ...the problem is the ORI m sport spider rim is only 19 inch and usually meant for 525i 3.0 , so if I change to this size on my 523 2.5 don't you think it will be heavy and affecting the performance ? Unless if I buy the replica exact pattern from Taiwan but it is not ORI but they do have 18 inch..please advice ..tqThe pattern I love is exactly like my avatar photo.
 
Experts please advice as I need to make the decision soon...by the way what do you guys think of Taiwan Replica rims...strong, reliable and recommended? What about performance ..any vibration on anything that may affect the current ride and handling ....pls pls advice guys...tq

Oh ya how much recommended price should I want to go for the Replica m Sport spider rim and what brand and where to get ? Tq
 
Hopefully you have already introduced yourself in newbie section :top:
Anyway, 19" M-Sport rims are the way to go if you prefer BMW brand rims. I won't advise to change to replica rims although some rims are rather nice and sturdy.
Other alternatives - Breyton, Kelleners, BBS... Depending on your driving pattern choose wisely coz car with 19" rims are rather bumpy. I wanted to change to 19" last time but stuck to 18" in the end as I drive outstation a lot and prefer a more comfy ride
