I’m with you, except I’d be going for the genuine article (437M) and selling the 326’s (without tires) to make up the shortfall. I realise 326 don’t sell so well on here, but there seems a healthy market for them on EBay, gumtree etc.Zed Baron wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 1:20 pm I love 326's but not that much, £575 at that price I'd be looking at 19" 437M replicas or similar. What happens if one of the new 326's fail? I've been looking for one (rear- got tyre in garage, to use as a spare) and I'm still debating whether to get my 326's powder coated or sell them on and buy replicas.

I considered these, but when it comes to selling, I think unmarked 326's will help - especially if you want to get a good price for your 35is.
Plus I am not overly convinced that any bmw 19" wheel is strong.. its just pot (hole) luck

I know the 326's are a big debating point on the forum. But there's still a lot of them out in the real world. majority of E89's I see whilst out and about are still running on 326's and looking all the better for it IMHO.
£575 for the replacements is a lot but the cracked one's they are replacing depending on how bad would probably sell for £200. factor that in and it takes the sting out of it.

Yes, I love the look of 326’s and genuinely prefer a ‘standard issue’ wheel, but 437M’s are forged and 326’s are cast.
