Does dealer care about the aftermarket wheels?

If I sell my car to the dealer with aftermarket wheels (OEM replicas such as CSL/M5/M6) on, are they going to call the price low because I don't have stock wheels on?
I'm just curious that dealer really cares about the wheels or not.
Thanks.

please put stock wheel and sell your car.
They don't count your aftermarket wheels.

Well mine is just CSL reps so... I'm not hoping to get higher value for the after market wheels. I just don't want the value of my car drops b/c of the aftermarket wheels. They won't notice it's replicas huh? since they are bmw wheels.

Depends on the guy, most won't even be able to tell, some might notice it.

If anything, or if you have a chance, pick up some OEM wheels when you give the car back to the dealer.

For the most part they wont be able to tell. I dont think it will lower the value, just dont expect to get any extra $$ from the stealership.

I am not really sure the answer to that. I would imagine the price would be lower though because chances are the replica rims are worth less than your OEM rims, and would probably be considered of a lower quality in BMW's eyes.
