I bought a 2000 540i with 85K miles for $19K off of ebay (haven't paid for it yet, bringing the money with me). The guy says that the car comes with genuine M5 wheels and a touring set of 16-inch wheels. The guy I'm buying the car from said that the 18" M5 wheels have a few tarnish spots under the clear coat (he said that this is a usual problem with M5 wheels). Is this usual or the true sign of non-genuine wheels? (He’s sending me pictures tomorrow)
Please give me any other opinions you might have about this car. He said that, outside of a few paint chips up front and the tarnish issue with the wheels the car is flawless.
Thank you in advance.
