They definitely do, despite it saying it may not on their site.

I reached out to Wheelwiz and they let me know about this mistake!
Thanks yeah i reached out to them and they confirmed it. Quick question this wheel is gravity casted and i am reading some negative things about it. To be honest i am not expecting this to be my primary wheel but some thing cheap functional and presentable for short NY winters. Is it very easy to crack them ? Roads are not great here but i am extra cautious with the current 21s avoiding pot holes but do catch some at times.

I've only had them on for a week so I can't comment on their durability.

But the OP of this thread had them on for more than 1 winter already and he has had no issues with cracking. These wheels are listed on their site as "winter approved", whatever that means

I personally don't think you need to be worried. 20" wheels have very fat tires! They're way more comfortable/quiet than my 22s.

Did you went ahead with Schrader TPMS for which you shared ebay link in previous comments?
They are coming in from Slovakia cannot wait that long, so OEM tpms is from Schrader or HUF ?

Do you think these will fit ?

when you linked the site, it blocks the domain with **************, so it doesn't work. i think that's Schrader website, right? BMW OEM TPMS uses Schrader 433MHZ

Will these wheels fit a 2022 m50i with 22s?
Are they the same as the OEM m748s?

Also anyone in the US order these. Not sure if they ship hers?

I ordered these from USA, had to pay 400 CAD for shipping and yet paid less for what reseller here were asking. They are exact replica, lugs from my OEM 21" setup worked with them. It has even the recess for m sport emblems.
