hello Andy----you may be aware, but these are the rarest, and most desireable, of the bmw oem wheels for the e36 series. they are forged and are lighter weight than the other styles, which makes them the performance choice for the m3. they first appeared on the 95 m3 csl, which was the limited production lightweight model set up for track use, altho those wheels had the motorsport imprint on the center of the wheel. an authentic set in good condition is hard to find, and commands a price well above any of the other styles. if you are not familiar with them, you should know that they are staggered, with two wheels having 7 1/2" width, which go on the front, and the other two being 8 1/2", which go on the rear.

Staggered fits correct? I might get a set locally but they are staggered. I have a 96 ti sport.

Style 24 fit and look great as staggered. I went from 15" to these and although these are heavier, the weight difference was not that noticeable. Mine are polished so more of a pain to keep looking good (I didn't have them clear coated after refinishing...).

I have Koni SA dampers and H&R sport springs so my ti is lowered a bit. No issues with fender rub even at full lock.

Worst looking wheels ever fitted on a BMW IMO...







Just kidding, they look really sharp
