RIM IDEAS
been searching the threads and vendors and have come to a dead end w ideas on rims for the f10. need some help guys. looking for 20s if im gonna upgrade from the msport rims i currently have. became a victim of the dreaded "i hit a pothole, and now i cant get a replacement ls2" epidemic. so w that being said, id like to get a whole new set of rims and tires. looking to get some gloss black, aggressive offsets w o any rubbing issues on xdrive, besides the f14s. i like the avant garde 310s but again only available in matte finish. some suggestions would be very helpful as the summer is creeping up and cant drive around w the breast tumor on the tire that only has 500 miles on it
dont wanna take a second mortgage out but dont mind a nice investment as long as they last . oh and i dont plan on dropping the car ever, so riding on the stock m sport adaptive drive suspension thanks smoke

Hmm no help here yet huh? Ok I'll shoot. Biggest concern when purchasing a set of wheels and tires is going to be durability. As you stated don't want to spend all that money just to have them explode in a pothole.
I would suggest going with a forged wheel for its strength, relative light weight, and for larger option styles. The next step is budget. The two brands you mentioned before both make great wheels but due to their construction are a bit cheaper. To get a nice set of Forged wheels could set you back a good $3500 w/o tires. If you can cope with that there are many options that are reasonable from DPE, IForged, and Rennen Modular. I just ordered some wheels from a sponsor on another forum. They were great to work with and gave me a great price on a set of monoblock wheel in the style I was looking for. Shoot me a PM and I can pass along their information as they are not a sponsor on this board yet. Good Luck in your search. |

We can help you with any wheel needs. We carry all major brands. As mentioned above forged wheels are a nice touch because of weight, durability, etc. They tend to be pricey but worth it in the long run.
You may want to take a look at an F10 we recently did with some Forged 1 Wheels (click for photos). Their website is www.forged1wheels.com if you want to check out the other styles they offer. We also carry the MORR Wheels. They cater to the BMW market and offer affordable forged wheels.
