M Stickers for Rims

CrippledLucifer · 10-29-2015, 11:54 AM

I purchased some aftermarket rims from Costco for use as my winter wheels. They look very similar to Style 343 rims albeit they're only 17 inch rims. Pic is below:

I'm on a bit of a budget so didn't feel like splurging on OE rims, but I did put some BMW centercaps on there. There's a small recession there that will fit some M stickers but I'm wondering where I can find those to buy. I'm not trying to be a poser but I would like to fill that hole up.

Any help would be appreciated!

You can buy the M stickers for that on EBay

I'm hoping to find high quality ones that won't fade out or become yellow after a few months of use. Do you happen to know any particular vendor on eBay that might have high quality ones?

I'm not sure but I bought them from EBay for my replicas last year and they held up fine. They are $10 or less I think for 10 stickers maybe, very inexpensive even if u had to change them out every summer or something the cost is negligible

This was my first thought..

Also, I have a few stickers left from a project I did. They don't fit in perfectly, as I bought them on eBay..

Also, those wheels look great from costco. how much were they?

Underground6t9 · 10-30-2015, 09:55 AM

cost savings and high quality dont go well in the same sentence.

Up here in Canada they do. Granted, they're not available in multiple stylings, but it's something.

Thanks for that link! Unfortunately, that vendor doesn't appear to ship to Canada. They ran me about $140 each.

Most definitely! These are gravity cast so I'm not expecting a lot. I don't drive my car hard in winter and the roads here are not that bad so I should be fine.

Not trying to get stickers that fade but u get rims from costco? Lmao

ECS Tuning has OEM ones. I bought mine from there and they are perfect.

BIMMERGUY91 · 11-05-2015, 01:30 PM

Just FYI I have the Ebay replica ///M Stickers for the wheels/steering wheel and the ///M logo on them looks funky. I would just pay a little extra for OEM. I used them on my E36 M3 and they were fine for my purposes but if I was doing it over again I'd just go OEM.

gabimmer · 11-05-2015, 01:36 PM

That's a damn good looking wheel for winter use. Ignore the snobs.

gabimmer · 11-05-2015, 01:38 PM

Guess it has to say BMW in it to be quality...like BMW electric water pumps, now that's quality and dependability right there.

theastroeffect · 11-06-2015, 08:29 AM

Damn, I placed an order like 2 days ago for a set of these, definitely not OEM. Only paid $5 for them, let's see how they turn out lol. I might just get the ones off of ECS after the winter is over.

CrippledLucifer · 11-06-2015, 10:16 PM

So I just went ahead and bought them from the dealership. I paid $50 for 4 of them but at least they are a perfect fit and the quality will last.

Like I said in my OP, I'm on a bit of a budget. Besides, who wants to spend $2,000+ on high quality rims then have them go to shit during the winter? Most people in my city tend to swap out rims for winter anyway. There's lots of BMW up here with steel wheels as well as aftermarket alloys just to save the summer rims. Winters up here are pretty nasty unfortunately!

tmo24 · 11-07-2015, 11:58 PM

Wow. You can probably destroy those wheels and return them for new ones in 2019 at Costco. Keep that receipt! Oh, and if Costco didn't have the M stickers, try Sam's lmfao good luck man!
Seriously though, great find for winter wheels.

thkfast · 11-08-2015, 01:26 AM

Since you dropped the big bucks on OEM ///M stickers, be sure to place them correctly in the [ ]!

CrippledLucifer · 11-11-2015, 11:35 AM

In case anyone wanted to see what they look like on the car itself. Apologies for the quality in the first one, sunlight sucks sometimes.

The look nice enough to me and I've gotten quite a few compliments from people at work in the week that I've had them on. Eh, not complaining.

Yeah, this was the first thing I did. I snuck a glance at some genuine rims at the dealership and stuck them on exactly the same way.

yes, and our BMW's are neither.

Doyvidlah · 11-12-2015, 04:09 PM

I just purchased the same rims. What size are the center caps that you put in? Do the stock ones fit? I would like to purchase a set off of ebay but don't know what size.

Thanks,

Stock ones will fit. The ones I used are also from the dealership.
