Those are indeed nice wheels. I would need to have a check through my wheel "encyclopedia" to see if can find a match.

I think these are Breyton 'Magic' 18 Inch wheels. Give them an image search.

These won't be that common but there is a knackered set on UK ebay for £100. Here
I think you are right, or a good copy.

I seem to remember @GazHyde had a set of Breyton rims back in the past. They do look nice.

Dino has the Breyton Magics, mine were Softlines which were 5 spokes.
As well as the Beyern Multispokes?

Tbh, I'd have a garage full of wheels if I could. Breyton, rondell, BBS, BMW, rotiform. It'd get out of hand, quickly.

A little Breyton 'inspiration' and appreciation.

17x8.5 et 38 with 17x10.5 et13, as I am led to believe.

And I went for 108s on my E85 cos I didn’t like cleaning the 68s on my Z3. The ones on my E89 aren’t too bad, I have a good brush for them.

Compared to style 42s 68s are a doddle, plus they are darker and don't show the brake dust as much. Unfortunately my crapy brake calipers are now visible so it will soon be out with the caliper paint. Something tasteful I thought so I've gone for porsche acid green 🤣

I think those wheels would fit my///M, maybe would require a spacer at the front but might be a bit much at the rear with ET 13 v ET 8
I havnt found confirmation of the fitment and offset. It's hard to find, especially in the 17 inch variety.

17x10.5 or anything wider than 17x9 proposes more issues than just fitment. Tyres. 255/40/17 is as fat as they make them these days so this will be a forced stretch. A 10.5 width could easily sport 305 widths.

I'll have the style 42 cleaning to look forward to after I get the 17x9s and 17x8.5s refurbed and rubbered.

Yay. 😞
