First of all, thank an unnamed forum member for this link, and his explanation of how they work.
First of all, the wheel:

They have a few other styles available, too.
They do not make any direct fitments. You will have to redrill the wheels or run adapters.
DO NOT CALL THEM UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WORK.
These guys are fanatical about the wheels they sell going EXCLUSIVELY on the vehicle they are made for. You will need to be prepared when you call them the info you need depends on if you want to redrill or use adapters.
Redrill: If this is the route you choose, go on Ebay or any other vehicle classified service and locate a late model 2003 or up BMW 7 series. You will need to know the year, model and VIN NUMBER of this BMW to place your order, because they want to be sure you really own this car. And for the purpose of ordering, you do!
EDIT: Save yourself a headache and order from Amazon. See post #20
Oh, and why a 7 series BMW? Because they use the same offsets we do, and its easy to redrill 5x120 to 5x127. You'll need to open the centerbore, too.
Adapters: EDIT! Nevermind, that won't work because they aren't CURRENTLY offering them
or MB's.
So I hear some of you saying, man, that's a lot of work. OK, then keep your lazy as on the couch and run some me too wheels like everyone else. But if you don't mind putting in some work and sharpening your acting skills, you can get a goood deal.
These are not closeouts, either. that's the every day price, for now.
And remember, you never saw this here. They probably wouldn't care much for this thread. Fk em.
