How come in Fubarsky's picture the front fender gap looks wider than the front fender gap in Rixster's picture?

Well? My only question before ordering is the spare tire issue. I know some people buy the cheapo tire/wheel combo from **Rack but that would sure negate the weight benefit and does occupy your trunk. What is everyone doing here for this issue? Hopefully just not carrying a AAA card!

I think it is the angle of the photo. Mine looks different now with KW V2's. Gotta get some before and afters posted.

I am spareless... I drive unprotected... If I am going on a long trip, I throw a stock wheel/tire in the trunk

I need to do something about this, but i dont want to add weight to the car

I guess I will just take my chances for now...

Greetings from Germany.
I want to buy M6 replica wheels for my 335i with M Sport Package.
I have found on ebay, that some sell many M6 replica in Italy.

However these sizes are 8,5 x 19 et 12 at the front and 9.5 x 19 et 17 at the rear.

Cam I use the or do I need to go with ET30rear and ET35 in the fron?

I aprreciate your help.

Those offsets are too aggressive for a 335

You can order the rims from the US like I did. For the e92 / e93 you should go with ET35 front and ET33 rear. I use ET40 rear due to my 275/30-19 tires. No rubbing.

First off, I would like to tell you that your e93 is gorgeous and making me want to visit my local BMW dealership with a check in hand. I love the M6 rims and the M-Spec....well, i guess thats wht my question is...

I live in the US and WANT this and only this...is it possible to order one in the states?

Maybe, someone else would like to chime in...

Is it available via Euro delivery?

Wow, stunning and very clean!

I wish my CSLs had been packed in boxes..

I ordered from **********s, the wheels were manufactured by Velocity Motoring...

They came cellophane wrapped with cardboard covers and foam on each side.

Looks OK at first... But I had one damaged during shipping and it had to be sent back.

I'm sorry to hear your packages were damaged during shipping. Our packaging was tested and approved by an independent laboratory to eliminate guesswork in the quality of packaging. When did you order? Have we resolved all the shipping issues? PM me or email me if there are any other issues.

Do you think your 275's would rub in the rear w/ 35 offsets?
Thanks

hey guys i'm seriously considering these wheels but have a quick question...


has anyone had any problems with the M6 Miro's bending at all???

Because they are reps i'm assuming they are not as strong as OEM and more prone to bend??? Living in NY the streets have craters all over the place and the last thing i want is to start bending rims.

Any input?

Funny thing is though..

My rear 9.5 inch Velocity Motoring CSL's with +30 offset didnt rub with 4 people in the car on hard dips..

?
I am running a 10 inch wheel with +32 offset in the back and now I rub.. VERY SLIGHTLY.
And I do have a coupe.

Well, that sounds about right. A E92 coupe has less room to begin with. So a 10" ET32 will extend an additional 4mm further out toward the fender compared to our 9.5" ET30. That 4mm could very well be why you rub ever so slightly now.

Unless you hit a pothole or something at an extremely high rate of speed, you don't have to worry. All Miro wheels are JWL and VIA certified, so they hold up very well. I have a Miro wheel myself (the M6 style) and I've hit several huge potholes and they're holding up just fine--no problems.

As long as you drive responsibly, your wheels will be fine

That's weird--it has been like that back then as well--sometimes the coupes didn't rub with the 19x9.5 in the rear with a 30 offset, and sometimes they did. Not sure why it was like this, but it was back in the day. So today, the ET33 is the typical setup--especially if E92 enthusiasts decide to lower their BMW.

Speed.

Hey just wondering what the speed rating is on the general exclaim tires is. Also what's the fastest you guys have gone with the M6 reps on? Any vibration or weird noises?
