there is no doubting how they look..........and that is ^%$#g awesome!
Without getting into the pros & cons of 17" versus 18" wheels I have found a supplier who sells a range of BMW replica wheels including M-Parallels.
Motorsport Wheels & Tyres in Doveton (near Dandenong) Victoria.
These are my... "I wonder what they'll look like on my car?" pics.![]()

I checked the website - looks like M Parrallel is 18" only. To big for use on our Michigan roads.

As far as I'm aware M-Parallels were only ever available in 18". Though I'm sure someone mentioned on this forum that a 17" version was available for the Canadian market?Originally Posted by Derek A.

I wondered about that as the standard E34 offset is 20mm. I wonder what offset the late E34 M5's were that came fitted with M-Parallels as standard?Originally Posted by Paul in NZ
Does anyone know what offset the E39's are? I'm thinking they may be suitable for E39's and not E34's.

mp's are one of the nicest wheels imho.
i run 13mm offset all around on my 18x8.5's. those fronts with 14mm offset should be fine.
M-Parallel replicas can be purchased in the USA from this site:

They have other nice replicas in 17" and 18" sizes.
