Is there a way to get 20in chrome BMW wheels for my 745 from any place other than a deaership?

I recently purchased a 745Li. Love the car. To spice it up, I bought after market wheels. They''ve been more trouble than thery're worth, so I'm goiong to sell them over the winter. Next spring, I'm looking to buy the wheels specifically made for BMW. But the only place I've ever seen any way to get a set is at a dealership. Needless to say, the asking price is WAY abouve any 20 inch wheels I've seen.Is there a way to get 20in chrome BMW wheels for my 745 from any place other than a deaership?you get what you pay for in any aftermarket rims. cheap rims will be worped out of the box or won't be as cool on your car as in your head.

look on ebay for some good deals. dont go cheap. you have enough money to buy a 745Li

so you should have enough to buy quality rims. good luck!Is there a way to get 20in chrome BMW wheels for my 745 from any place other than a deaership?

There are dozens of places all across the nation. It was a major mistake buying aftermarket wheels N tires from your dealer. Dealers don't know squat about aftermarket products and especially rims, unless they have their own aftermarket shop, but that's mostly at dodge dealerships. Plus they will charge you a boat load compared to your nearest customization shop. If you search local on yahoo and type in wheels and tires or aftermarket wheels and tires, it should show a bunch of them. For any BMW, especially a 745, nothing but HRE, Asanti, DPE, or AC Schnitzer rims should touch that car. Listen, if your planning on spending less then $4000 dollars on rims and tires, then just leave the stock ones on. It is the ultimate driving machine, it deserves the ultimate driving rims.

Before you get rid of the rims, look on the back side where the wheel touches the hub. You will see some air pockets that look almost triangle shaped. If there is a hole in those, those need to be plugged. Because it can get water in there causing the wheels to vibrate. I have worked at a BMW dealership for over a year. I have seen it all. My recommendation is to just get them from BMW so you know where they are coming from. The ones on ebay are imposter knock-offs that people market them by calling them real, while they are not. If you are trying to save money, try looking at a junk yard. Helpful hint: To know if it is an actual BMW part, there will be the last seven digits of the part number on the back side.Is there a way to get 20in chrome BMW wheels for my 745 from any place other than a deaership?

Hi there,



Which version (e number) of 7 do you have. That will help us to help you.



BMW are not the only option. We need more info but generally the BM hub is fairly standard.



20" is huge, have you checked out tyre prices in order to maintain the rolling ratio for your model?



Hope this helps
