BMW twist alloys

Hi all, I'm looking to buy some 230 (twist) alloys for my pre lci e91 m sport, and noticed some people are advertising different with alloys but with same tyre sizes. Did they make 8.5 9 9.5 and 10 inch width twists.
Any help appreciated.

8J 19's on the front and 9J 19's st the rear are the OE sizes for these wheels Nick, trick will be perhaps finding a set of wheels that haven't been welded previously due to cracks appearing on the inner edges which has been widely reported as many 19" BMW wheels like the 225M's for instance as found on the MSport set up.

I'm surprised mine are still intact.

Great stuff thanks for clearing that up. Not fussed on cracks can weld them myself, was just concerned about a set I was missed out on. They were advertised as 9j fronts 9.5j rears and the winner wanted a refund because the sizes wasn't what he wanted. Now he's telling me there 8.5j fronts 9j rears.
