MarkTVS 209 Posted November 24, 2019 Matt you seem like a prick, that said I’ll still offer you 5k for the m5? On a more serious note you should check the wheels before you bought the car, I assume the Chinese wheels are still round and function as a wheel therefore I fail to see your issues?

trade vet 701 Posted November 24, 2019 Hi Matt Those after market alloys won’t be cheap.The dealer appears to fit a lot of them.They might still have the originals.They have done nothing illegal and they look like a proper family business.You could ask them nicely and they might swap it for something else.

Well you should have looked at what your buying really , You state you also bought the car with faults present too so your not in a great place on here to start moaning about wheels are you really . Take some responsibility for your decisions and stop blaming others . The car was there for you to look at wasnt it , bet you bought it at less money than it should have been , Forget that when the moans kick in . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave c 5 Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) I love the humour! but there is a serious side here. IMHO, the OP needs to get back to the dealer and get a proper response. It’s no good coming on here posting with half a tale. if he shared that, then maybe he’d start to get a way forward. As for why they are fitted..... at the weekend, I was quoted £500 to refurb some diamond cut 18in alloys (don’t worry, I didn’t). The same tyre dealer then tried to sell me new bling ones (looking an awful like the BMW pictures) for the same amount. Time and cost will be why they swapped them Edited November 25, 2019 by Dave c 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
