this is all I get when clicking on your link????????

I've always thought Beemer wheels would look good on an f-body but really had no idea they would fit. I played ball for a coach that drove a red BMW 635CSI and LOVED those wheels/tires, and wondered if they would fit the Z.

When you click on the link, just put a space after the .jpg and hit enter. It will work then. The site doesn't allow linking, but of you do the space, it thinks its a new window.

It works for me.

I like them a lot, they look classy but still racy. You can put a 265 on the back, I've seen it on a 18x8 before and didn't look too bad.

Where did you buy them if you don't mind me asking. I wouldn't mind those in 17x8's!

I got them locally. You can do a search for wheel replicas and you should be able to find where you can order off of the internet.

Tyler02ws6 from another board told me the following

"I got mine widened at Wheels America in Miami. Call 1-888-873-7561 and ask for Kevin. "

So the fact I live in Miami helps. he had his shipped via UPS.

click here --------> Wheels America <-----------

BMW wheels actually fit nice in a F-body, that looks pretty sharp man. I used to have BMW racing Dynamics wheels on my car. I loved them, they had the perfect offset amd filled the wheelwells great, But they only came in 8 inch width also. I sold them because the tires were too small and I wanted Fikse's, that was six years ago, and I am still rolling on salad shooters, damnit!

Plain Center Caps?

Did your caps come plain or with the BMW logo? I am looking at some BMW wheels (18x8 off an X5) but didn't want the BMW logo on them. Any ideas? Are they just adhesive backed emblems?

They look great!

yeah they are removable centers pieces. mostly any rim shop can replace them for you.
