If I were shopping for street wheels now I would not be able to repress myself and this would be the result:

Edit: Here is one of those pictures I was referring too: I really like the T-S5 in the satin titanium finish, and the price is great. You guys are breaking me down with these 18" options lol Last edited by DreamTime; 10-19-2017 at 06:00 AM.. |

Black is overplayed. People don't fully appreciate that your color and finish choices are much wider with powdercoating than just black. Go check out other options and have at it.

Lol, you know I am getting so excited for that trip!! We'll see if I am squared away by that point, although... it took me a solid 2 months to decide on wheels last time then I had to wait 6 weeks or so for them to get delivered... So, still might be rockin the Arc 8s. We'll see

As far as buying new, all I have been doing is checking out other options. It's kind of a problem actually lol. I don't have much spare time, and I am spending most of it looking at freakin wheels... But! I think I have narrowed it down to 3 different styles, except HRE offers so many different finish options that I am torn between 2 different colors on the FF04s. So, technically - 5 options - if you include powdercoating my 220s. I might be getting close! Woo-hoo! |

Yep, I ended up getting Titan 7 T-S5s in satin titanium, 18x10 sq for the track. I sold my 220s to a local guy with an E46 M3 who had been looking for those exact wheels for a while, so it was a win-win. Now, sometime relatively soon, I will be looking for something new to replace my Arc 8s for the street. I need my street wheels to look just as good, if not better, than my track wheels.
Here’s a pic of the T-S5s. I don’t have many good pics with the wheels on the car since they are only on while at the track, or driving to and from. When I’m at Mid Ohio in early September, I am going to make a point to get some good pics with the wheels on. |

For new daily wheels, I would recommend revisiting the F14s you originally posted in this thread. Bronze or semi-gloss gunmetal would look great. I absolutely love mine and I don't think there's a better wheel out there for the money. They can be had for around $1600 if you shop around. My car isn't an E90 or black, but I've attached a pic to give you an idea. Mod bargains has a bunch of pics of a black E90 on semi-gloss gunmetal F14s if you need more inspiration.

Your car looks great! I love that blue and the wheels are a perfect match. I still really like the F14s, thanks for reminding me of them. I'm going to check out the pics of the black E90 with the gunmetal. I still daydream about bronze wheels on my car, but I’m not sure if I will go that route or not. I think the gunmetal might be a good choice. I appreciate the input! |

I think I need to consider the carbon fiber pieces I’m adding to my car - so far it’s just a front lip, but then my spoiler is getting installed next week. I will likely have side skirts and maybe a couple other things by the time I start my new wheel search, so I will want a wheel finish that works well with my Jerez + CF. Maybe bronze would be too much at that point? It might look dope though. I just hadn’t really considered that yet. I appreciate the motivation! Thinking about wheel shopping makes me quite happy |

If you do decide to go with Forgestars, keep in mind there is a 10wk wait time between when you place the order and when they're at your door. Just enough time to get the other shopping out of the way .

10 weeks!! Waiting for wheels is like torture lol. I completely forgot about turnaround time... My T-S5s were in stock and ready to ship, I think I had them within a week of ordering them. But, I remember now waiting for my Arc 8s to come in, and they got delayed by a couple weeks too. It wouldn’t hurt for me to start looking sooner than later that way the wheels are arriving when I was planning on getting them. Good thinking! |
