    I’ve got a good one! I bought these wheels on an e28 last year, the car had been sitting for quite awhile and had changed hands multiple times since the owner who installed most of the performance parts on it.

    The wheels are stamped with MOMO on the front, but nothing but the T logo thing on the back and no markings for offset, size or country of origin anywhere on the wheel that I can find.

    Are they reps? Some weird MOMO one-off? I’ve never been able to find a similar wheel in any catalogs or photos online. They do seem to be very light, but I do not have any weight measurements yet. I’ll update here when I do.

    Thanks for any insight you all might have!

    These are style 5's but not sure which one. They are characterized by quite a deep dish and no lip. Some suggest its a BBS rim but i cannot find the specific rim.

    They are definitely racing dynamics, they look super simular to MM2s tho

    In a rare twist of fate, I got that pair from that car. I did a "search google for this image" and found a guy in Bulgaria who restores rare wheels as a hobby. He said he no longer had them but would keep a look out for them. The new buyer of that car that I posted also contacted him for the Euro stock 15" wheels and connected us, and then I bought them from him. Turns out we even went to the same college.

    I'll post pictures once they are on my car (a beautiful red 318is). If I crack one of the wheels I am screwed. They are indeed exceedingly rare.

    Also listed as Amil Gamma in an ad (the black car, not mine). I tried looking for them extensively elsewhere with no luck. Any ideas?
    See my above post on Amil wheels, I now have two sets of 15X7 Amil wheels. The above set and this set of Amil 15X7 ET26 6 spoke wheels that I bought two years ago that I had restored and fitted with Kumho 205/55-15 PS31 tires. They are now on my 91 E30 318i They have MSW center caps since they fit perfectly and Amil center caps are unobtanium. Amil wheels very rarely come up for sale in the US market. I've never seen a set of Amil Gamma wheels, sweet and very rare wheel.

    I drove six hours roundtrip today to pick up these Amil 15X7 ET25 10 spoke wheels with a huge lip. Anyone know the name of this Amil wheel? For those of you not familiar with Amil wheels, they are made in Belgium. Amil was an original OEM alloy wheel manufacturer for Renault, Citroen, Peugeot, and TVR. Unknown if they are still in business (or been bought out) or who the US distributor was.

    CR7? on the rim it says CR 90, I guess that's why I couldn't find anything on them. thanks for that info. I will look into them.
