they look sweet!

I wish I could afford a pair haha!

Have fun with em! They are good looking!

dmw16 · 03-11-2011, 09:09 AM

Thanks all!

For what they are I thought the price I paid (thanks to a great hookup from Dan as usual) was pretty reasonable. I've certainly seen more expensive wheels that I don't think are nearly as nice or of the same level of quality.

weigh them before you put the wheels on and after.

Please and thank you

I am thinking of getting those wheels for my 128i.

I did my best to balance them on my scale, but it's tough on a digital scale that needs them to sit pretty much still.

I came up with 24lbs out back and 22lbs up front. I'll weigh my stockers when I get them off. For what it's worth the wheels do feel light.

I LOVE those wheels, congrats.

Great info. Must aftermarket companies are selling 26-28 lb wheels and advertising them as light lol

Rock on man. That is some great info. Perfect for the 135i. Bet you will barely feel the weight difference.

I on the other hand having a 128i, will definitely feel the heavier wheels. But over all, them being 18's and weighing in at 24 and 22 is pretty freakin good.

Can not wait to see them on the 1. Congrats....

The stock wheels came in at around 27lbs a piece (I was surprised how similar they were weight wise front to back) so it's a decent weight savings considering it's rotating mass.

The sun is coming out so I'll get pics of them on the car today. I am a crappy photographer so I apologize in advance.
