your car looks great, and the wheels looks almost as if they should be standard on the car.

great looking car!

Car looks good. First one I have seen with roof racks

Man these wheels are awesome for the 235! One of the best out there.

Noticed you removed the wrap on the roof. Why?

The brand is called Opti wheels. I believe there is another vendor that is selling the same style wheel on this forum.

Absolutely stunning my friend. One of the best looking 2's I've seen so far. I was a click away from purchasing those wheels but wasn't sure they would look as good on the M235i compared to the M2. Boy was I mistaken...

If you are interested in replica wheels - Replika makes a set, model #R163. I bought them for my car & they are VERY nice wheels. Weigh a few lbs less than stock, too. They are located in Canada & there is an online retailer from whom you can get the wheels. Just search online.

The Replika wheel's machined finish has a smoke-like tint to the clear coat so while still silver, it's darker than the OEM version. And, the black portion is matte. I actually do not like that & am having a wheel shop refinish to get rid of the smoke tint & glossy clear coat the wheel. (They actually don't want to do it, preferring the current color & matte finish! LOL)

There is another mfr that makes similar replicas, but I can't recall their name. When I looked them up at the time I was shopping, I could not find out much about them, so I went with the Replika brand.
