New wheels for E46 330

[bompey]

Typical - last month I read about BMW Car mgazine putting a new set of alloys on their E46 but I can't remember where they got them from.
Yesterday the wife hit a rock and has split the alloys on our 330. We want a new set but who should we use near Sevenoaks, Kent, and what looks good.
Are replicas any good?
Suggestions please.

Replicas tend to be heavier, which you dont want.

What about having a search on ebay - theres loads of wheels on there.

Thanks. How can I tell what's comparable in terms of weight etc to the originals

Not sure, but buy original BMW wheels if you can. Some reps are much heavier.

Look for the BMW stamp in the metal.
