Do you mean the wheels in my sig.? If so they are type 230s and they only come in 19" from BMW. The 18" Type 189 is a five spoke and there is a pretty similar version of them in 19" from BMW.

Thanks guys. These 230 are the wheels I mean - there is a full set on Ebay but they are 18's and I was pretty sure they weren't BMW original wheels. I was wanting to understand whether the OE manufacturer BMW were buying from were making an identical variant in 18 inch or whether the wheels I was seeing were just some spurious aftermarket item.
