Style 132 Replica's

Was looking to upgrade from 18" to 19" style 132 wheels. Found some online vendors that sell replica's. Has anybody had any experience with Wheelsandcaps? Or Finishlinewheels? Thanx

I saw those wheels on Ebay. The seller sent me some hi-res pictures. The back wheels have some curve rash on lots of pitting from rocks. I was still thinking of bidding on them.

Wheels and Caps has the replica 132's for $699 with free shipping!!! I also found some re-conditioned OEM wheels for $1200 with shipping. What do you think.

Decided not to get the replica wheels. I just read a lot of neg reviews. I ordered some OEM wheels instead. Got a good deal on them. I can't wait to get them. I'll post some pics once I get them on.

Does anyone know what size the center hub cap is? Is it 70mm?

I believe the center cap is 68mm. I too, just upgraded my wheels to the style 132 (OEM'S). You'll never go wrong with OEM. Been really happy ever since. The wheels came with no center caps, so I ordered some new ones (P/N 36136768640) from www.autohausaz.com for $5.44 each. Here are some before and after shots.

My God that makes such a difference in the car's appearance Bimmer (and nice color too)! I just love my 132's...been trying to upgrade myself to the style 87's but I just love the look of the 132's too much...I wish they were wider like the 87's on the back end but I like the side view of them better I think than the 87's.

Hi FernMD, how much did it cost you for the OEM? Where did you buy it? Thanks!
