Are there any BMW wheels that could replace my (out of round) Dnepr wheel on my rig. I would prefer to use an Arihead GS front wheel. Thanks
I bought 3 new Harley blemmished rims on eBay, $6.50 ea plus shipping (19"x2.5"wide 40 spoke), laced my Dnepr hubs and had an inexpencive truing by the local bike shop. I'm happy.

Hmmm, sounds like a plan. The front wheel I have found has an asking price of $475.00 used. Whew!
BMW wheels depending on year run either a 15mm, 20mm or 25mm axle. Your Dnepr wheel runs on a 20mm axle so you would need to change axles. We do these all the time.
We also have cast wheels similar to the BMW cast wheel with the "Y" spoke pattern made in China that work but do not work with the Dnepr brakes. We have these for $150
Ural wheels also work. We have these in both drum brake and disk brake as well as the parts to convert them to disk brakes.

BMW's from the late 70's to mid 80's have 17mm axles.
OK, I give, what year BMW's have a 20mm axle?
