Best wheel for your money?

Averdi · 12-22-2013, 02:21 PM

I have csl reps and everyone has them so I want a more unique look. I like the style 95s but is there any other suggestions for wheels for around 1k or less?

F-16 CHIEF · 12-22-2013, 02:35 PM

I can't decide on wheels either. Everyone has CSL's. I like 710's. I was looking at the Advan RS's today.

What's hard for me is my car is TiAg. Nothing matches it well.

Taran.J · 12-22-2013, 02:41 PM

Well I'd powdercoat the rims you have now for around $100 a wheel you can go custom color instead of going in on new wheels

SgtGoldy · 12-22-2013, 02:43 PM

For the money:
Used Forgestar F14

What you should do (Im looking to get a set sometime early '14):
Volk G25

Mardio · 12-22-2013, 02:57 PM

Agree, you may be able to get nice rims used under a grand.

The f14s look too similar to what I have now. Can you show me a pic of the volks?

theyre out of your budget unfortunately. If I were you though I would just save for a bit till you can afford them. They are light as hell and gorgeous. Pictures never really do Volk wheels justice.

a 335i with them: http://www.flickr.com/photos/isteve7...in/photostream

I had a set of Volk CE28N Time Attacks and loved the hell out of them. I don't think I can ever buy any other wheels than volks for now on.

ie my old G with CE28N:

What kind tho? I wish I could find a nice set of bbs used

Kid Eh · 12-22-2013, 03:14 PM

These will be my next wheels. Not cheap though.

HRE 790RS

MasterWang · 12-22-2013, 03:16 PM

Not unique since a lot of people have these, but I got my matte black VMR VB3's for $550!

idk I cant get down with those. Especially for the price. If I wanted to spend that kind of money I would grab a set of Carbon Revolution CR-9s (most likely used lol... if you could find em)

Averdi · 12-22-2013, 03:26 PM

I mainly want a wheel that looks like this , any good replica brands?

Black wheels are so overdone.

BD_F22 · 12-22-2013, 05:33 PM

If you ask me best bang for your buck rims are Apex Arc-8 or EC-7's

This.

Apex or some F14s in terms of value. The Apex will get you a strong, light wheel in a variety of offsets and finishes. You can track it, daily drive it, all that good stuff.

Buy a rep and watch it crack

fazman · 12-23-2013, 09:32 AM

Style 162's FTW!

And people say black wheels are played out. Those wheels are superb.

I'm a HUGE advocate of eBay. Practically everything that I have bought for my ride has come from there including my staggered Alpina B7 Reps. Check this out man, $550 for the whole set, NIB and shipped.

Anyways, here's a LINK. Check it out man, there's a lot of choices. I selected 18", staggered, 5x120 wheels, $1000 or less, but of course there's more parameters you need to look at. I'll leave that up to you. Good luck bro.

I love my wheels, but then...I love wheels in general. Anyways I started to poke around a little and was looking at this 19" staggered set of "Crave Mach M5" wheels. Shit bro, $800 shipped NIB. Pfft, I'd roll on these, hell yeah.

I know, it's a wagon, but man, they look good.
