Broke a wheel :(

Slid straight into a kerb last night and took a piece out of my alloy. Does anyone know if BMW still sell 18" 193 Wheels?

Yes, BMW still sell 18" 193s
You can even buy a genuine 193 from MStyle - a set of four is £1200 so around £300 for a single piece?

Hi I've got a set avail for £500 used with tyres if your interested. Beats £300 for a single rim if you ask me! But I'm biased

Stand you ground and say you don't want the same again because of the cracking issues, I don't think 193's are affected You might get away with it.

I think their response may be 'there are no cracking issues with these wheels, unless you drive into kerbs'

Unless Si's company has a large transport department, I doubt they'd even know about which wheel cracked or didn't.
