flavush · 12-11-2011, 10:52 AM

Hi there

In the next months I'm getting my 1M (used) and i don't know in which color i should buy it.

Can you post here photos of VO and AW 1M with black rims?

Thank you in advance...

Best regards,

So many AW with black wheels posted all over these forums.

flavush · 12-12-2011, 08:49 AM

Yes I know, but I would like to compare AW and VO with black wheels. I dont have seen much VO 1Ms whit black wheels.

Thank you for those nice pics

Maximus_Prime · 12-12-2011, 12:12 PM

I'm planning on powdercoating/painting the stock wheels on my VO 1M black but I have to get my car first (hopefully today or tomorrow!). There haven't been many prior pics of VOs with black wheels, but a quick search

led me to these:

Momo Style's 1M (http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php):

Djfactor's 1M:

hopofthese's 1M:

Let's see some more!

MPBK · 12-12-2011, 12:47 PM

Are they still making 1Ms in Switzerland?

flavush · 12-12-2011, 12:57 PM

@Maximus_Prime

Thank you for the pictures.
It looks so damn good in VO and in AW with black wheels!

@MPBK
In switzerland they produced as far as I know 150x 1M. At the moment there are about 15x 1M to buy used, priced around 67'000 - 85'000 CHF.

Thanks a lot

Best regards,
Flavush

Get a set of M3 GTS wheels: these are exactly the same (359M), except for the black color.

Another VO with M3 GTS wheels (source: http://www.autogespot.com/bmw-1-seri...e-1/2013/09/01).

My personal preference for VO remains gunmetal: sporty look, but not as racy as black.

True that the M359 wheel (M3 GTS + 1M) is a great design, hard to be beaten by aftermarket wheel designers.

Its design seems to be clearly inspired by the cool E46 M3 CSL wheel.

Only regret: BMW should release a gunmetal version of both these wheels - that would be a sure-fire hit. Why did BMW miss out on that opportunity ?

Left: E46 M3 CSL wheel (M127) | Right: 1M wheel (M359):

Actually, there were two wheel codes for the CSL wheel:
- wheel code 127: original CSL wheel (235/35 + 265/30)
- wheel code 163: "CSL style" - "ZCP" - "Competition" (225/40 + 255/35)

VO and black zcp wheels is the best. I am getting mine powdercoated soon but haven't decided on a satin black for a super gloss. What do you guys think?
