He just got them fairly recently. He's been selling the chrome ones on Ebay for sometime and I asked him about the sliver ones about a 1.5 months ago and he said they are coming. Sure enough, here they are. He did raise his shipping to $200 from $125 and I don't know why?? here is the link to the original auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT If anyone has any experience of how durable the finish is, please let us know. He told me they have a lifetime fittment warranty and he didn't elaborate on "fittment" much when I asked him. I'm sure they will fit ok however, will they stay straight? maintain the original sliver finish for years? Who knows ...

 But factoring in everything...$1200 bucks for the 4.8 rims are not that bad...it's still about 1/3 of the OEM price.

i bet you that the quality is ok but not as good as the OEM, a big factor why the OEM cost so much is do to the weight, the replica weight a lot more they are not made with of the same materials. and weight at the wheel is a big factor for performance.........

Just give him some time and he will have to lower his prices. Most replica's on Ebay go for $650 - $800 and shipping is no more tha $100 for wheels only. Because the wheels are new, he is trying to maximize the profit. Give him time and keep watching. I still wonder about the quality of these wheels and the service of this outfit?

Plus ...they do not weigh that much more...so..it really is not a big deal. The main reason the factory wheels cost so much is they say BMW on them...instead of BWM...
