Might want to try picking up one from the classified section. They come up every so often, especially when people switch to afternarket. Has to be way cheaper than getting one from the dealer. Just a thought.

Part # is 36117845871, assuming you are looking for Ferric Grey and not Orbit Grey.
I agree with pz619, and I would also add that if you Google the part number you will almost certainly find BMW dealers selling brand new ones at a significant discount, plus it's very possible you will likely find used rim dealers selling used ones. I've seen them on Ebay from time to time too. |

Is it Orbit Grey?
BMW Parts had told me that Orbit Grey rims can't be ordered, only the silver. I couldn't find a part number for them either.

That said, it was hard to get a part number and the one I found was apparently incorrect. The dealer got the right part for me using my VIN. |

He asked me if I wanted to get a rear too since I hit a pothole on one side of the car, they were in stock in the northern California distribution center.

Do you have a part number for the orbit grey 18x8 rims? If that's the case, I'm going to demand the dealership pay for the powercoating. I had originally ordered and paid for a set of the orbit grey staggered wheels and tires. When they came in, they tried to tell me they were the correct color. When my car arrived from the factory with orbit grey wheels, it was obvious they were wrong. After waiting a week while they tried to order the right ones, they gave up and offered to take them to get powdercoated. I'd have to cover the cost of the powdercoating.

LOL, yes, I actually had the rim replaced today, and the old rim aslo has both Ferric and Orbit gray stamped on it.
Also, I bought another full set of rims, this time in Orbit gray. Figured I'm going to keep the Ferrics for winter tire setup and Orbit for summer. The Orbit gray also has both Ferric and Orbit stamped on it. |
