19" multispoke wheels?

Alright, I just got a new jet black 2008 335xi sedan and am having a hard time finding wheels that knock my socks off. F***ing love the car so far, which only makes want to find the perfect set. Audi makes an 18" 17-spoke wheel they throw on their A4's with the "Titanium" package, which (if you don't know what I'm talking about) look like this:

Ideally, I want to find a set of 19's that look like this (or very similar) with BMW fitment. I like the finish on them a lot, but if you know of a good substitute, it doesn't have to be the same color since I can always just have them painted.

Any ideas?

Damn close, but a little off. I'm lookin for something that's not a "slit spoke" design. Just straight. Ya know?

Those do look nice though.

I'm not very well versed with aftermarket wheels. A quick search on BMW's website in accessories showed this:

Might help. But I think you'll most likely have to look for OZ wheels, they usually do wheels like that. I have to agree with you, Audi knows how to make their wheels look good. BMW's are sometimes hit and miss.

Yeah, I saw those in the OEM wheels thread. That's in line with the spoke count I'm looking for and closer to the right style, but they're still only 18"s. And they're not exactly cheap for OEM wheels either. Haha!

I always knew this would be a difficult task. Oh well. Guess I just have to keep my head down and keep lookin.

How about type 198s? Not sure whose car that is, but that should give you an idea.



Here's more info on them:

They are Forgeline ZX3P. They're pretty expensive. Here's a pic from their site on an Audi S5 (not a great qualit pic).

OZ Superturismo GT

Theyre quite heavy at 26lbs, but if you want the Audi look, i think this is pretty close, and OZ are quality wheels.
