Here are two sites that by working with both you may be able to figure it out. The first has pictures but the writing I presume is German.

The second one was a fabulous site that had all the pic and english explanations, but BMW busted them so all that is left is the explanations. Maybe you can find the wheels on the first and then see what cars they were put on in the second. Of course if you speak the language of the first, the second is unnecessary. Tell us what you figure out.

This wheel is/was known as The Executive from OZ Italy. It was produced in the late 80s early 90s........If ya buy them, realize they may be hard to find replacements if damaged....... AND NO, IT WAS NOT OFFERED AS FACTORY OE FROM BMW. HTH

I've been selling wheels for 25 yrs...........they were a hot style way back............up until recently a company called Limited made a very similar wheel but is was discontinued a few years back....they only offered it in CHROME...........and not of the OZ quality either.....enjoy'em.

i think mine were chrome originally but that was long since painted over as it pealed i think
it is a concern i cant get hold of them if i were to damage one as i think it really suits the car, and as the spare isnt the same id have to write off a whole set

thanks again
