also, the pic you posted of the e89... from the m.o.d.b.argains website nonetheless... has actual BMW 19" 313 Performance wheels. not 942's.

you can tell by the color of the non-machined portions...
313 = ferric gray
942 = much darker
shape of the "step" just behind the spokes near the barrel of the wheel...
313 = "step" is more complex, having a rolled inverse curve
942 = "step" is flat (a.k.a. easier/cheaper to manufacture).
shape of the spokes...
313 = narrow spokes w/ the bend closer to the barrel
942 = slightly wider spokes w/ the bend halfway between the hub and barrel
and i
think you can even make out the "BMW Performance" logo just outside of the valve stem on both the front and the rear wheels. (the pic is low res, and it's hard to be sure. not all the 19" 313's have the logo.)
i find it interesting that the website's owner is marketing 313's as 942's. seems semi bait-and-switch to me.
