Why can't replica rim companies just say they are making OEM BMW rims...they are good quality.....

They can't say they are OEM, but they can say they are replicas. Doesn't the same apply to watches?
Forgive my ignorance on the subject of replica watches, but are they actually putting a rolex brand logo on these replicas, or are they simply copying the style?
As for copyrights, I think patents would more apply to watches, and I'm not very educated about patent law. Obviously it must be legal to a certain point to produce a "replica" or else those rim companies would not be doing it. Doesn't the same apply to watches?
As for music, you can produce a "soundalike" to another piece of music. For example, here's a cool album that my company released a couple of years ago. See if you can identify the originals (the answers are inside the link for each title):
