Well, looking to buy O.Z Superleggera at the moment, but I was also looking at these, which are allot cheaper...

R 8700

these come in narrow and wides
R 8900

these also come in narrow and wide
R 4500

I've changed my mind on the profile, I'm going to run 19", 30 profile and 315 or 305 in the rear, and 265 in front. MAYBE changing to 295 in the rear if I can't roll the rear fenders enough, but I will see how it turns out. I wanted to get a set of BBS mags but I heard their not so strong ..

I wanted to get a set of BBS mags but I heard their not so strong

BBS rims are forged from single pieces of aluminium, while most other wheels the Al is melted and then cast in a mold. This significanltly weakens the tensile strenght.

BBS are some of the strongest/lightest ratio wheels available, hence the premium

I Like these ones very much!

If not those then these would be my next choice:

But I suppose its your choice

why not ask Uber to do a photoshop for you to see which looks better on the car?

 

[clutchplate]

sharp idea I shall do so, I hope he doesn't mind. I'll give him something for it

 

[andrewbuch]

Do you have a picture of your car from the side??

 

[clutchplate]

hmm, I might have some on my pc at home, otherwise just the ones on my facebook profile... in the bmw540 album.. will have a looksee when I get home

 

[andrewbuch]

Nope nothing completely side on in th FB profile! I am not good at photoshop so need a simple side on pic. I am sure Uber can handel the other angles..

 

[clutchplate]

ok, change my mind. the OZ superleggera 3's are gonna cost me R58,000 from ozwheels.co.za. not gonna happen, or the ultraleggerra which are MUCH lighter, don't look as good, but are only R25,000. still too much

 

[andrewbuch]

Hectic!! So rather go for those R4500 ones from autostyle

They would look great on your car

 

[clutchplate]

I think I might just do that. just need to find out what size tyres will fit on there ..

 

[kabal]

those are pretty ugly IMO, the e90 M3 reps are much nicer IMO

 

[clutchplate]

Kabal, I think I missed that one .. having a look quickly ... ok,, R3,995.00 its even cheaper ...
but I'm sure this MAG weighs a TON.. I wanted to go for super lightweight forged mags. I need to loose about 200kg's on my car ... so I figured I start with lightweight mags.

 

[clutchplate]

ok cool, guys. The price for blank plates or printed number plates is like 99.
I will create a thread quickly to see who wants plates with their name on it... sothat we can use it when we do photo shoots and videos... then we don't need to spend hours editing out number plates... otherwise your plates will be published on the web for everyone to see
