aaa rims have em good service too =]
1991 535i 5-spd- I have original 91' m5 Wheels on it right now. Does anyone recomend a company for replica or know of anyone selling original e34 M-Parallel's. Im hoping to find a good strong set of four $400-900 depending on condition. What problems might i run into if i got a set off of a 740i sport? Are the cheap sets on ebay any good? I will most likely sell my turbine style 1 wheels as well. iv' got two sets of NON throwing star covers. Any help is apreciated. thanks jake

If at all possible, stick with Original BMW wheels, they are much stronger than the aftermarket wheels and resist bending a whole lot more. Look for a set of E38 M Parallels 8x18 fronts with 9.5x18 rears. The offsets on the front wheels are a bit more than some recommend for the E34, however, they will fit and unless you plan to do some serious driving like track days, etc. you will not notice the difference in offset.Originally Posted by bmxbmw
You will have to increase your budget though as you will not probably not find a set for under 1000-1200.
As for the correct E34 M Parallels, if you can manage to find them, they will cost upwards of 1600.
check this board, there is always a set floating around. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=216159Originally Posted by bmxbmw
also keep checking ebay, I got a oem set for $800 and they are in very good condition.

OEM set of E38 or E34? For $800, you stole them if they are OE, even if they are E38's.Originally Posted by darron525
e38"s
BMW part numbers are 36.11-2227-633 (9.5)" and 36.11-2227-631 (8"'). Centerbore is 72.6 mm.

Just a little tidbit for you guys, but here in Bahrain, the M parallels were an option on the e34's in '94 & '95.
And real ones are cheap a hell over hear too.
A friend of mine (in NJ) is selling a set of OEM E38 M-Parallels with nearly-new Kumhos. I'd take 'em for myself, but I don't want to go back to staggered wheels. If anyone's interested, shoot me a PM.
