You could fit PCD adapters if you so wish, so then you couldfit the BMW alloys to your Omega..

Hello Mr insurance man, I'm going to fit non standard alloys that were meant for another manufacturer completely. They don't actually fit, but I'll sort that out.


Any increase in the premium?

Easy to get around that.  Get some wheel-trims which look identical to the original Omega Alloys and Grip-Fill them to the new BBS alloys.

Et Viola!  :-*
