M6 Style Wheels Preview for the 1Addicts.com Community

Hey everyone!

I just thought I'd share some photos about the test fitment we did with the 19" M6 style wheels that we have for you. We tried to get the fitment right on, but we could not make it fit perfectly, so these will not be for sale. I just wanted to share and show everyone what these would look like!

Once again, please keep in mind, as our concern for the 1addicts.com community, these will not be for sale, just a preview of what the upcoming 18" preorders and the someday future 19" M6 style wheels will look like!

Enjoy!!

That car is going to be a one of a kind in 19's like that for awhile. It's our test car , unfortunately even though there is no rubbing. My decision is not to sell these wheels due to it not passing all the requirments we are lookign for. It's still far to agressive for the community. The 18's are due at the end of month. But we've been playing around with how far we can take it while also getting the suspension.

One of the challenges is also getting more rubber down - cause thats also the car we've worked with RR on putting power down. So we've been dialing it in on the offsets that will let you guys have it pushed all the way to the fender plus make sure it doesn't rub or cause any problems.

We really wanted to show you guys some pictures and give you an idea on how the wheels would look on the car. Thanks guys.

First, let me say thank you very much for your support to the group by testing and posting these results. Please let us know what other wheels you might be working on. Would love to see CSLs and Velocity's.

I look forward to seeing the 18s. To me, there's too little to this wheel in 19" and doesn't look too good. The gaps around the brakes are very noticeable and I'm not a fan of that.

This is why I posted it. These are the 19" versions, but we just wanted the community to know that the 18" staggered version will look something like this (without the sticking out part). The 18" versions will be a much higher offset, so that it will fit the 1-series without rubbing or fitment issues

We're doing our best to get all sorts of wheels for the 1-series out there! And please, keep in mind, that we are definitely working on 18" and 19" wheels that will be 1-series-specific. :biggrin: Don't worry, the CSLs in 18" staggered in 1-series fitment won't be TOO far away im sure :wink:

Well... I suppose you can always get Brembo Big Brake Kits??

Dan, we're doing our best to make sure we get some more variety for everyone! On the 18" staggered, we can probably do some customer paint job on them so it can be a glossy/matte black finish with red rings. :biggrin:

I'd also be interested in a dark grey version with red stripe like this:

I am 99% positive that unless you put an order in now, they will probably be back-ordered

Yup, limited 40 sets coming in for the 1-series fitment...We've taken a lot of preorders in, but still open.

PMs replied! Please everyone, these are not for sale, and we will not sell these because of fitment issues.
