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!!

The offsets are a 19x8.5 ET38~39 and a 19x9.5 ET43
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.

James, how about some black powder coat with time attacks? That'd be sweet!

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:
