tirerack.com has plenty of wheels that aren't expensive. If nothing there interests you, checkout the private sales forum of e90post.

cheep wheels = cheep wheels. be careful what you get, they may be crap

talk to NAMotorsports up in Vernon CT, they can problaby hook you up on a deal. I got a great price on my Breyton Vision Race GTS wheels!!!!

Don't listen to the cheap wheel stuff..just be smart about what you purchase. I've had ASA AR2's on my 95 m3 turbo for the last year or two with no problems. They are only about $180/ea. I would stay away from ebay type wheels though. The CSL reps would definitely be a nice choice..look in the vendor forum.

It's definitely possible to get nice wheels for around $800. The CSL reps in 19s are $899 and $700 for the 18's for non-staggered.

V-715 would look good on your car too.

Beer Goggles · 06-10-2008, 05:13 PM

Cheap (NOT CHEEP) mean nothing. They are just cast. Most things are made in China so unless they are forged...they will all be about the same.

Some people think 3-piece are the best wheels, but they don't even understand that forged 1-piece are the strongest and lightest wheels...they are just expensive because they really need to be for a specific car...3 or 2 piece allow the manufacture to make a wheel for many different cars, which is cheaper...but they charge you for it.

SPP has CSL's for $750...

jimmy330xi · 06-14-2008, 03:22 PM

Go to wheelmax.com they have a lot of wheels for about that price.

Just stay away from Chrome... It looks kinda Ghetto fab on a BMW.

Otherwise you should be able to find some serviceable wheels for about $800. Hell the wheels I'm running now where like $1200... Maybe just save some coin for another month or two?

+1

I have nothing against chrome on BMW.... I have seen some nice setups.
The problem is when you get chrome wheels that are about $800/set, the chrome plating is just not up to par and it will decolor or chip on you. Once that happens it just gets disgusting.

For about $1600/set I can get you really nice Vossen Wheels. check out www.vossenwheels.com or even Vertini Wheels: www.vertiniwheels.com

Another option are the M6 Style Wheels we carry:

Im nervous that blue won't match up... should I just get black wheels and have them painted or whatever?

yoyeewee · 06-19-2008, 02:57 AM
