I’ve gone from 15” wheels to 16” style 5s and I’d like to have a 16” spare. Anything considered.

Well compared with staggered 16" Alpinas, Hartges or a good set of BBS RS that IS quite cheap for a brand new wheel

I think they are around £300-ish new, or were a couple of years ago

I hope so, if that's the case I'll take one. It'll probable make it onto the car on the basis that one of my current ones is a little bent and despite two straightening efforts, there's still an irritating harmonic wobble at 70mph.

The Euro price is 466, so I'd expect it to be about the same in £s . The wheels were much cheaper a year or so ago. I do wonder sometimes if someone at BMW Parts does not increse M3 parts prices based on crazy asking prices in for sale ads for complete cars.

I found this place last night while searching out M3 parts prices and the wheel in question. https://www.online-parts.co.uk/bmw-spare-parts/ which seems to be Rybrook BMW with a full ETK and UK parts prices instantly.
However, their prices are quite a bit over what Cotswold are asking. After looking at a few quotes from Cotswold on here and checking prices at Rybrook, in one example Cotswold quoted £366 all in for a single part and Rybrook want £460 + post. Interestingly, the basic BMW Euro price is 375.

Try BMW Classic Shop to see what's available and for an idea of price in Euros
