wheel question

ashecnc · 03-15-2006, 03:36 PM

I am sure this will be moved, but this has more traffic. Has anyone bought these wheels http://victoriatire.com/wheels.html?...202006&size=18 I'd love to have the 162's, but they are only one size?

I'm considering the same purchase after seeing this E90 fitted with 19"ers. I think they look pretty slick

I don't know anything about these specific wheels. I would suggest that you determine if they meet TUV standards and what they weigh vis a vis wheels that do meet TUV standards, including those supplied by BMW. Typically replica wheels are very heavy and some are not particularly strong. The old axiom is, as you know that if they seem to good to be true, they often are not.

This site sells replicas in 17". Might be nice for snow tires, but don't know anything about them.

Thanks for the info, but I was looking at the 162s 18"

for me the 162s are just the best looking rim on the e90
