yep, 3pc wheel... i have the opportunity to buy them, and i am inclined to do so... however im a bit hesitant as ive never seen a set on an m5... the rareity of it, and the look of the wheel are the two things that appeal to me the most... its not as common as some of the other wheels youll find on modded e39 or e39 m5.

Are those replicas?
I ask because, notice how the arms on these reach all the way to the edge of the rims?

there is a guy on bimmerfest.com selling a set of ac schnitzer type 2's (non racing) they are a 2 pc wheel i believe.

bad news is...

1 of them is bent.

and all 4 are dipped in chrome (not my thing)

good news is they are 850 for 4 with 3 of them having tires on em.

I was very close to buying them, but decided not to.

because by the time i'd buy them/have them shipped/refinish them/straighten the bent wheel

i'd be into the rims approximately 2k.

and then another 1k on tires approx.

So i decided against it.

specially since yesterday i saw my car sitting out my father in law's driveway and the way I had it parked, it just looked sweet on the mpars :)

neways good luck finding pics of an e39 with those wheels

they are gorgeous set of wheels.

no they are originals.

the 1st one below is the ac schnitzer type 2

the 2nd one is a ac schnitzer type 2 racing

hence the different look :)

Those are the type II 3pc.
I looooooooooooove the regular type II's

I'll pchop em asap... be right back.... +1 The ones on the top have the rivets going all the way around with NO spacing in between the spokes.

The second picture on the bottom shows the rivets WITH spaces so that the spokes can reach all the way to the outer edge of the wheel.


Did they make them both ways or are one of them Reps???:shifty

i will find out, the person selling told me theyre original not replica... i will do some more research... i certainly dont want to buy replicas for the price theyre asking... thank you for the heads up.
