eBay. Make sure it says OEM or Genuine if you care about that sort of thing.

Those are the Alzor brand - replicas, made in China. Not bad, decent quality and the price is right. Just spin the wheels by themselves on a balancing machine BEFORE you go through the time and expense of mounting and balancing with tires ...

No way those are OE or OEM. These days I find that poeple don't want to pay for OE quality, the made in China reps will suffice.

214's are very popular and actually any 20" x5 rims are desirable and are hard to find.

Yeah ... the 9.5 and 10.5 measurements make them non BMW, but they sure have all of the right markings! The way that the paint flakes is another give-away ...

They're NOT replica wheels. I looked at them and realized I had the measurements wrong. Here's 2 more pictures showing 20 X 10 & 20 X 11. "The way that the paint flakes is another give-away." Give-away for what?
