Ended up going with the last ones in the post! they came from the UPS guy today! hoping to get them on this weekend.. Will post pics ASAP!

 

 

 

Thought I'd ask everyones opinions on some wheels I had in mind heres what I'm thinking...

 

The second set I would do a staggered look, 7.5" wide in the fronts and 9" in rear. Only thing is the wheels havnt been made yet, so i'd have to wait atleast 45 days to get them.

The third set is the ones I already have but they cracked, everone seems to like these so I was thinking of buying them again.

 

Let me know what you think!

I like the second one and the last one you posted.  Your car looked great with the ones that were on it but I would question why they cracked before buying the same thing again.

Too much wheel and not enough tire + PA roads and pot holes is why the first ones cracked. I got them used and they were in bad shape to begin with.

I like the second ones as well guess I'll just wait to they start making them!

Thanks for the input everybody!

If I bought wheels and they cracked I would never buy wheels from that company again.

best way to find out is by calling them...as an old tech in the tire industrie they have to pass tests to be D.O.T. certified and if they crack its due to poor workmanship. and even if they dont replace it they credit you think of the fact the wheel could be defective and you could save a life if they recall the wheel due to your cracked wheel!

Good luck.  Hopefully they will honor their workmanship and at least give you a discounted set.

The third or fourth set.  Good aggressive look, either would compliment your car!

Check out Bayern...  or TSW.   All the GTO wheels are the same offsets and bolt pattern as the Beamers... 

Also, check www.wheelmax.com they have a ton.. of selection.. customer service is crap.. but. they have a bunch of wheels.

and, www.vqmotoring.com  they have a GREAT selection of wheels... and they have good customer service.

These would look SIK!!!!!!!!!! I love black wheels they look so clean and they get away from that flashy look plus the red stripe adds a nice touch..

Staggered CSL replicas with a red time attack ring get my vote.

 

And since they're made for BMWs they should be able to fit without much trouble.

After some research the MSR's are not a very good wheel.

Im gonna look into the CSL reps, thanks for the suggestion Caleb
