Best wheels?

[m3f_tlvanden]

I realize this has probably been beat to death in multiple posts, but, let's do it again. :sleeping:



Which wheel brand, type, size and color enhances our M3's appearance and performance best? Please post photos if possible to justify your opinion.

BBS....18"... polished completely...or with a polished lip of some sort....you'll be pimpin'

wouldn't the 18's slow you down a bit?

SSR's - they even have the ///M logo

not if they are nearly 4-5 lbs lighter at each corner than stock..

yeah that was my big issue, i'm shopping around and it came down to hamman which a lot of people have and u need a big brake kit to make up for the empty space, bbs which are nice (rg-r especially), i forged that i havent got a quote on, dtm cruiz that i dont really like, and HRE that i can get a deal on but still way too expensive.. i'm confused on what to get, but looks like bbs right now..



so JB those RG-Rs didnt slow down your car at all?

I'm getting the SSR Competition (anthracite) for my estoril sedan. 18's... with the larger wheel in the back.

those bbs arent real, there are a few other styles that actually i can almost say look better than real bbs in real life, my friend's friend just got a set for his e46, they look good, and go for $599-1299 on ebay depending on size.. what i heard from a few shops is that those wheels ****, any pot hole and they brake, they can't withstand any abuse or hard driving.. so i dont know, you get what u pay for and according to them the stock m3 wheels are a lot more durable than those ebay ones.. i already bought some $500 wheels for my civic a few years ago and had nothing but problems with them, after driving a few weeks and hitting minor potholes those rims were shot, and to top that off i hit a huge roadwork unfinished step looking pavement and broke one of the spokes right off.. but it was only $100 for a new rim.. go figure, i would get the real ****

when i was looking at some of our sponsors websites.. i found the ssr's 18x8 front and 18x9 rear for something like 1400$... that is one hell of a price.. i would love to have them in the lighter silver color..
