Hmm I wonder what stage we are up to with our wheels Alufelgen? Any more pics? Will there be any more delays?

The RE-11 are the best tires we have tried so far. We running nothing less than RE-11s on all our vehicles.

ALUFELGEN · 11-04-2009, 05:10 PM

The tires have been mounted. We have an appointment tomorrow to have the wheels mounted on a 135

ALUFELGEN · 11-04-2009, 05:14 PM

Here is a shot of the concavity of our 1-Series exclusive rear wheel in 9.0" ET + 48mm. We are absolutely impressed on the engineering behind this wheel.

BMW86 · 11-04-2009, 05:46 PM

Awesome!!

Why only 1 photo though?

Please PM the cost for gun metal.

Thanks!

Noticed how flush the 255s sits on the wheel. Looks good!

I like how concave the rear wheel is but that has never been the problem with our cars. The front wheels are a whole different story with the 6-pots up there.

Post up a pic of the front wheels please.

ALUFELGEN · 11-05-2009, 03:26 PM

We have just finished mounting the wheels on one of the best looking 1-series we have personally seen. We have full clearance in both the front and the rear including brakes, suspension and fenders

The vehicle we tested has KW V2 coil overs as well.

We were all in shock of how beefy the setup looks with the 8.0"/9.0" wrapped in RE-11s.

Pictures coming in a few.

The rear concave is a actually a major issue with the width and offset of the 1-series. It was in fact one the hardest issues we had. We have obtained in our opinion, the perfect offset for the 1-series. The rear wheel sits flush with the fenders, it allows a 255 (possibly a 265), no rubbing issues and an incredible concavity in the rear

BMW86 · 11-05-2009, 04:47 PM

My plan has always been to keep these 18s for as long as possible then upgrade to a 19 with the correct offsets but after seeing this 1 pic of the 18 CSL wrapped in RE-11's i'm more than satisfied. Well done. Looking forward to seeing the photos later tonight!!

I was not referring to the ability to stuff a large tire and the wheel being flush. I was talking about the fact that the rear offset will allow more of a concave look than the front will ever have. Hence the reason I asked for a picture of the front wheel since it will not have the same appearance as the rear.
