E46 M3 Alloys - where to find a good set?

[siddo78]

Hi all, I am excited to say I have just bought my 1st M3... and am now hoping for some advice pls!

I think the 19's really make the car, and I'm lucky enough to have alloys that have just been refurbished. However they have a 'matt' finish when compared to originals due to the refurb.

I was hoping for some advice as to whether:

- It is still possible to buy brand new (genuine) E46 alloys anywhere?
- If not whether any replicas are worth considering (or all nasty and heavy)
- If not, any ideas for somewhere that refurbs M3 alloys and somehow recreates that polished chrome effect!

Thanks very much,

Who did the refurb?

Not sure, it was already sorted by the independent dealer in Worcester before I bought the car.... (I can prob find out). They do look immaculate, just not the original chrome finish that's all.

There is a guy on ebay who sells genuine M3 wheels and CSL wheels. Chris someone I think.

I have a set from him and so did another lad I know, excellent condition and good tyres as well at a very reasonable cost.

If you want his dtails PM me and I'll try and find his email or tel for you.

Chris Laws. I bought a set of CSLs from him when I had my M3. I have his number if the OP wants it.
