Default Anyone run bmw650i wheels?

i like em alot. basic 5 spoke and decent concave. ive seen the other bmw wheels(dont know the series), but never these ones on a z. what yall think?
19x8 and 19x9. not the best width but nothing the adapters wouldnt push out.

Don't BMWs use the 5x120 bolt pattern? I know the 3 series does. If you want my opinion, I think most BMW OEM wheels are pretty ugly, but to each his own.

edit: nevermind, got hasty and didn't read your whole post. Seems like you got that covered

holy **** im in love. that looks great imo. they must make different wheels. auction on ebay im looking at say 19x8.5(i thought 8) and 19x9. got any more pics? how wide are your spacers. id like to run them flush with as little camber as possible.

maybe it's just me, i wouldn't spend money on oem wheels from another car. money can be used towards aftermarket.
