Collective wisdom / experience needed...
 
I need some OEM gear (wheels, etc) for a 1989 BMW 635. Pelican Parts is my first port of call, but some of this stuff seems to be dealer only.
The stuff I need is still available, but BMW Australia wants my first born. I'm looking for a reliable US BMW dealer.
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I would think you could get wheels from aftermarket sources, auto dismantler type thing

For example, these guys are local to me

This is the place I went to when I was a kid and got my 2002. He has a BMW junkyard on his lot.

I have some perfect BBS Moda wheels for a 635, and they take 225/50 wheels which are much nicer than stock size. Those cars run really well on Bilstien/Eibach suspension.

I just sold a set of taillights for 40.00. Gave away two sets of original wheels. Have a bra and I don't know what else that you can have. I will give you a heck of a deal on the wheels, and they look super nice on a 633, nicer than BBS or stock IMO.

Metric Mechanics used to make the best engines and gearboxes, etc. I loved my 633 with schrick cams and euro tranny and final drive. I kept the wheels, but I know now I will never use them. PM me if you have any desire for clean five spoke wheels.
