Quite a few E53 owners have used OEM replicas for winter setup without any problems. Not sure how many E70 replica wheels are out there.

Follow this link and look at style 209 for the $2800 winter set up referred to above in this thread:

Thx for the update KEF. I have the 209 winter setup, but I haven't even unboxed them yet. I would have wondered if I got the right wheels, if not for your post.

why is there so much confusion on which style number is which design? doesn't BMW have a web page that clearly shows the style's and their appropriate number??

THIS IS WHY WE NEED A FREAKING UPDATED BROCHURE..... if they ever come out with the 2008 brochure.... geez. i can't believe i'm buying such a great vehicle that has such a bad website and marketing department.

I know - there is some much mis-information in this thread I am starting to get confused myself!
