Wheels - If Money Where No Object...
Guys!
if you had an unlimited budget to splash out on just 1 set of wheels! which ones would you go for??? when i was looking for a set i fell in love with these.... the BC HB04, quotes for 19" i think was around $4000 & 20" around $4400 without tyres!

Easy, there is only one answer for me, Vorsteiner VS-320 wheels as seen on the stunning Vorsteiner GTRS3 M3
http://www.vorsteinerwheels.com/forg...iece/vs320.php http://www.bmw-mania.com/article/283...r_BMW_GTRS3_M3 $1700 EACH without tyres and a custom paint job for the wheels like the one on the Vorstiener M3 are a couple of hundred dollars on top of that so over $7k for just the wheels. Just a bit too rich for me but THE best wheels for the 3 series IMHO. |

Just really surprised given their awesome designs that no one has produced cheaper copies\replica's of them, I'd have some like a shot. Just wish there was a bit more variety on 3 series wheels, all you seem to get are countless copies of CSL wheels which are very nice admittedly but getting a bit saturated now.

RE the CSLs, yes they seem popular on here, and a few members seem to have them, but I drive 30K a year and I'm always on the look out for mods, but I have NEVER EVER seen a single E9x on CSL reps EVER on the road. Maybe they all too busy posing out side Krispy Kreme and don't take them on the road?? |

members post up pics and most of the wheel choices are CSL reps but come to think about it i hardly see them either! on roads the most common i see on E92's are the MV4's!!!

I was more on about the fact that most of the alloy wheels suppliers seem to only do CSL reps and maybe 1 or 2 other variations. There just doesn't seem to be as wide a varierty of choice for BMW's as for other marques. I gave up looking for alloys in the end as I didn't really want CSL reps and their is very little else available unless you want to spend top dollar and get them imported from the US. |

I LOVE T37's, unfortunately I don't think they really suit BMW's much IMO. They look the business on Jap metal though, especially things like the GT-R, 350z or RX-7's.
