Broken wheel... what to do?

[Sockethead]

I had this happen on the the way back from Bimmerfest. I'm pretty sure that it was a combination of shitty NJ roads and a massive dip in the road on I95 that we hit at about 90 mph on the way down.


Now we're trying to figure out what to do:
I don't know whether I trust the other 3 wheels as these wheels have seen a lot of track time by the PO of Kpro's car. Also the wheels need to be refinished and I don't know if that can even be done..
The wheels aren't that expensive but they only come in offset for the 1 series which means I'd still have to use the spacers. I'm debating buying 4 new ones and getting them powder coated the same color.These wheels are low pressure cast but made in China. I really like the way they look on the car though...

The other wheel I'm looking at are OZ Formula HLT. These are also low pressure cast but with a few strengthening enhancements. I think these will look pretty good on my car too...

What do you guys think?

I love those wheels. What are the sizes/offsets?

Those offsets/sizes are good.

I prefer the look of the ones you have over the OZ.

I'm not a fan of a center lock design when the car does not use a center lock system.

Those are just caps on those wheels they are an option.

Please tell me that original BMW wheels would never do that.

Those OZs look awesome. But so did the breytons. If saving cash is a concern, get a breyton. If not, droooooool over some new OZs!

Haha, I wish I could! The place where I get my wheels fixed said that the BMW 6 series wheels are the worst... they are always getting them in for crack repair.

This is my dilemma!
