MIMINO is on a distinguished road
OEM vs. Replica

Hi Comrades,

For about a month, I have been proud owner of my 09 x5d monster, and have been thinking to personalize since.

I have given some search around but it seems like e90 owners are the mod freaks. As I am also e90 owner, I have to be honest, I am transforming equal passion to my E70 Diesel, and I love the D.

To make the story short, I would like to get wheels, but can't find any known manufacturer that would take the pride in making replicas for e70. For example, AluFelgen makes outstanding set of wheels but unfortunately they are mostly for 1,and 3 series.

I have been quoted $2,500 for a set of replica style 215 wheels staggered with rubber(rft) at my local shop.

OEMs run a bit over $4,000 with run flats as well.

Do you know any known replica manufacturer that make quality product for e70??

Has anyone had bad experience with replicas ???? Can you share please ???
I want to see if this is really worth 4-5k for OEM.


Thanks
