New wheels arrived today!

Post by bmwaddict » Tue Sep 12, 2017 7:54 pm

The Breyton Inspiration 10j rears I bought from America arrived today, only took about 2 weeks!
They're so light I thought I'd been scammed when I lifted both boxes at once!
They're as new and have never had tyres fitted or been on a car. As soon as I get the fronts stripped and painted to match I'll be fitting them. Wanted a set of these for years, taken me ages to make a staggered set as these wheels are discontinued and super rare, especially in 19s.

Super cool and amazing quality wheel.

Looking forward to seeing them on.
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

Hi, they look quality :thumbsup: Are they forged? Be interesting to see a weight comparison between these & your old wheels 8)

Thanks, not sure if they're forged, but theyre about half the weight of the Linea Corsas, if not less. I can pick them up with one finger! Gotta love that German build quality!

The second ones look stunning! I'm guessing 2k+
I would have loved these if I had a spare 2.5k

Yeah unfortunately and too much for me to ever spend on wheels..

They are very nice I am not a big fan of 5 spoke designs but i like them.

They look lovely - would have those on any sports car

If you think some of those posted above are expensive try a set of F Type blades:

Believe me - I don't either so purchased with them on at no premium to others on sale. You can spend a fortune on rims and tyres if you have cash.
Ran my Z4 for the last 9 years on the same stock rims
