Strange how these things work out sometimes!!

Thanks Jeff for your reply, it is always good to hear from you!

I am glad to hear you got your Power door lock kit and keyless entry system for your BMW at an excellent price from "Slick Wheels.Com", (for the real cheap price for the BMW M5 replica wheels???), and now we know they do some have quality parts at good prices!

I just hope their 17inch M5 wheels meets the same high quality as your keyless entry system that you purchased from them did!

I had almost forgot about them ("Slick Wheels.Com"), with the real cheap price? for the 04 17inch M5 wheels, until your last forum posting, and now I will now put their name "Back In The Hat" of my M5 wheel company's choices that I am researching the www for my final decision! (Thanks)

It is good to know there are quality companies out there on the web with cheaper prices, and we do not have to just restrict ourselves just to do business with bavauto.com, although I buy a all my BMW cleaning and waxes, etc from them and bavauto.com is a good company since 1973! (Their just a little too high, $$$$, with some of their BMW wheel prices!!! i.e. with their E60 BMW M5 wheels)

PS,

My www research is about over with.

Because of approx: $2500.00 price $$$ difference between the 17inch (and using my stock radial tires) Vs. going with the cool looking 18inch but then having to purchased a new set of: $1400.00 18inch Michelin Pilot tires, not to say of not having to go to my local BMW dealer and have to change my idrive electronics, or speedometer re-calibration of my idrive, etc, just for the 18inch, (the 1+ inch tire difference).

I am about 90% sure of buying and trying the 17inch M5 from: ""Slick Wheels.Com".


They look as good as any M5 wheels that I have seen yet. (they looked to be the true Ten spoke 17inch BMW M5 wheels, and not the five Spoke that some companies only offer and pass of for the 17inch M5 wheels!)

I am still waiting on a couple of more www companies, ( SEE BELOW HYPERLINKS), to email me, before I make my final decision:
