Your Dream Wheels would be...?

Wait till you see the wheel set up I'm going with!

Julius@Style77 · 05-22-2012, 12:32 AM

How about some Custom Forged Magnesium Wheels

I really like the way they look just not sure if I could run it without any issues on the street.

F1 as of now seems to be the ultimate street wheel

No offense to anybody, but am I the only one who doesnt like these wheels??

My personal favorite is BBS FI and TE37SL on top of the panda bear edition set.

HRE P43SC in brushed tinted clear.

^IMO One of the cleanest SG M3s I have ever seen.

+1 E88.. Silver face, polished lip or gold face, polished lip. Just picked up a set in 19. Would have preferred 18, but wanted to avoid the wait from ordering new. And yes those are my dream wheels.

Personally, titanium FI would not go great on a SG color. I would do black FI on SG. I love my FI but nothing beats the BBS LMR look I had before. (these pictures are not mines)

I was unaware of this! I was almost thinking of selling my FI and get these.... Glad I didn't!

Here is mines... Sorry for the poor quality.

LarThaL · 05-23-2012, 09:26 PM

My dream wheels do not exist unfortunately.

I want:

HRE P40SC in 18x9.5 ET 22 front and 18x10.5 ET 26 rear. This would fit 265/35/18 front tires and 285/35/18 rears. BBS FI in the same dimensions would be great too. Just not enough good 18" options for wide rubber on the M3. This is at odds with the fact that the 18" tire selection is much greater than 19".

Lot's of porsche owners run their e88s on the street and have no issues with them. You might be thinking of the older magnesium versions which were not as strong. As for the finish, the centers are painted and cleared just like any other BBS wheel. The lips are polished which might take a little extra effort to keep clean.

One advantage of a 3-piece wheel is if you ever damage the front or rear lip, you could send them back to BBS and they'll repair/replace the damaged section

The e88 have always been my dream set of wheels which I kind of regret selling now.

808MGuy · 05-23-2012, 11:16 PM

Somebody on the forum had HRE P40 on their SG E92 in the same color scheme I have (brushed with black powdercoated barrels). It looked pretty sweet.

I am with you on BBS wheels. I am not a fan of any of them and probably would never own a set. The style just doesn't do anything for me and is average at best.

There are a couple CF wheels that I remember from a couple years back and they were like $5000-$10000 a wheel.

Whoa, that would look stellar I'm thinking. Like others I believe Ti would not be a good look with Space Gray.
