I need help with wheels!

I love the look of these. Does anybody know what they are? Are they genuine BMW?

Looking for some new shoes for my e90.

Thank you!

Nice wheels but you wont get that look in the picture you posted. Being OEM rims the offset and width are conservative so you'll need spacers to avoid that lost in the arch look, especially at the rear and its lowered. I see these are 8X19ET29 and 9X19ET40, a lot of aftermarket rims are up to an inch wider and have a more aggressive offset and run a wider tyre without needing to roll the arch/fender. If wheels are really important to you then do your research and what fits your particular model, LCI/pre LCI, E91/92/93 and suspension set up etc

Lots of complaints about cracking too. Though I wonder if that would be mitigated by avoiding runflats?

Most likely. Seen people recommending to ditch runflats and run a bit higher tire pressure.

There are several BMW OEM wheels that have gotten a reputation for cracking, like Style 193, 225, 230, 313 etc.

I've owned a set of 193 and 225 and didn't get cracks in either, despite shit roads. Non-runflat tires on both + slightly higher tire pressure than "recommended".
