Velocity Motoring wheels or Bmw M6 wheels?

It looks like the velocity comes with tires too just for 149 so it will be cheaper, and thre 19x8.5 would i need spacers for that? or do you prefer m6 reps?

well personally i like them both. spacers depend on the offsets. if u want the wheels as close to the fender as possible than u will want to go with spacers. the m6s will be nicer because they come staggered already. if i was goen to get the velocity ones i would go for the 19s and get staggered. (8.5 front 9.5 rear.)

You can't go wrong either way, I guess design wise I prefer the VMR V715s but the M6's look stunning as well. Tough decision though that's for sure.

I'm going to have to go against the general consensus here lol. I have both an E90 and an E92, and while I like the look of the M6 reps that I have on my E92, I actually prefer the V715s on the E90. I'm in the market for them in a few months, hopefully in flat black if they offer it. Just my personal opinion though.

Needless to say, the two posters above me who do have M6 reps on their cars look great as well!

I agree, the M6's work best on the E92s. I love this look though...

I don't think that's been done before but I can try to photoshop it. Matte black or glossy black?

We offer both wheels in the perfect fitment for your car. We were the original ones to get these sizes produced for you guys!

If you go with either the CSL or M6 wheels, I would go with 19x8.5 ET40 up front (ET38 for the M6 wheels), and 19x9.5 ET30 in the rear. This will be the most ideal and perfect size to go with for your car.

Depends on what look you are going for, I could recommend you either way. I am slightly partial to the CSL wheels though, as I really like those.

Feel free to post/PM/e-mail me any other questions you may have.

We are the #1 distributor for these wheels, and I can guarantee you that.

thanks.

Heres some more V715's on E92.




We offer the V715's in 19x8.5 +38 and 19x9.5 +30, so no spacers are needed for E90/E92.

It all comes down to personal preference and what wheel you think looks best.
