18" or 19" M6 wheels?

[Graham_A_M]

Hey guys, stupid question I know. A guy on here has an Z4 coupe with the non-staggered M6 wheels, however they are 18" 's.

I'm torn between picking those up and going with bringing in a set of 19" 's that are staggered, as in 19x8.5 for the front and 19x9.5 for the rear.

(Thanks Nate for the pic, I stole this from your banner a while back)

Both of the last two sets are the said 19's.

Just wondering what people think. Some people say the 19" 's are "too much". I think they look great. I was hoping for some opinions before picking up either the 18's or 19's.

I was torn between a bunch of wheels, but HRE's or Forgiato's are $5k plus rubber, so about $8-9k after its all said and down :(
These would be a fraction of that pretty much.

19s!!!!!!! Fills up the fenders nicely and it looks amazing.:drool:

19s!:burnout:

I dont think the 18s are that bad but would have to agree that the 19s fill er up right. If you can afford it, go with the 19s

^ they're the same price. Yeah I was quite interested in the 19's.
Frick "run flat" tires are pricey though, :rofl: the tires are twice as much as the rims. :burnout:

The Blue Z4 has the grey M6 and not the gun metal. They seem much smaller than the gun metal. Both of the ones with 19's are lowered aswell.

If you want to meet up just to look at the 18's to give you a better idea of what they look like on the car.

^ yeah Nate, I'd love to see your car with your stereo and everything. If your free this week, I'd love to stop by.

19s:drool:

are you decided on getting the m6 wheels/reps?

Never been a huge fan of the wheels, they are better suited with other cars. I personally think that there is too much of a gap in between the spokes. It doesn't seem to look right unless you are running a bbk.

BBS LM's look absoutely sick on these cars, also the volk te-37's match the z4/m coupe very well.

I'm not set on the M6's at all, although for the buck, I haven't seen too many wheels that look as good on these cars: thats not entirely played out.
honestly, these rims are pimp to the nines.... and them some.

Although at $1200-$1500 per rim, there are little more then I'm willing to spend. :thumbsdow
Much the same with Asanti's or HRE, or HP Forged, or Savani's.
:(
Seems like all the really nice rims are way out of my budget for wheels.
I'll take a look at the BBS & Volk wheels now. Thanks Funk. :)
