i like the 20"rims bmw offers but is worth for me to buy the aftermarket

replica rims? do they hold up in appearance? i bought a few years back aftermarket bmw rims and they didnt hold up. i didnt know if they were factory defect or the guy that would wash my car messed them up with cleaning chemicals? thoughts?

As long as you are buying a decent brand like HRE, Hamman, ACS, CEC and not TSW etc. The good brands mentioned come with warranty and and they replace if any problems.

No, to me it's not worth it, original rim looks much better than any aftermarket rims IMO, but that just me, I like to keep everything original.

should keep in mind that when ordered with 20" factory wheels you also get the slightly flared black wheel arches as part of the 20" wheel option, if you order with 19" you dont get that, the flares are flush with the guards..

I've always stayed away from aftermarket because I've always been told they don't hold up as well, bend easier....
