Alloy wheel ideas ...

[stuartinzg]

Well, as per my last E92, I think despite my best efforts my rears are most likely cracked.

Red warning light came up over the weekend, one rear was down to 24 PSI, the other 30.5PSI. I had new PSS fitted around ~1500 miles ago, and I checked a few times in that period, seemed OK.

(The pressures of RFT vs. non RFT is another topic for debate... I wouldn't run these PSS at 44-45 PSI as the RFT are recommended! )

Assuming they are... I need to replace the wheels (again), so will likely venture back to Z Performance, as my last set were great.

This is how they look on the new M4

TUV approved and lighter than OEM ...




Thoughts?

Gorgeous would be my thoughts

Tyre was down to 21 PSI after 2 days ... will go to the shop tomorrow to see if it's a puncture. I can't see anything in the tyre...

Looks like I'll be ordering soon !

Oh yes, will take the M4 with the wheels :lol: :lol:

Well I guess this answers the question...

I'm a bit irritated, but nothing I didn't expect. I will get them welded and refurbed too so I have the full OEM set ready to go back on the car.

Decided to go with Hyper Silver rather than a dark colour, like this! I'll be able to fit 265 or 275 on the rears as they are 9.5"

Next will be H&R springs and sway bars - they have a set which works with the adaptive suspension

Yes they are already 19" BMW wheels, so will replace with 19", just slightly wider

Well change of plan for a few reasons ...

Now ordered BBS 19" CH-R Titanium with Stainless steel rim protector.

Not great pictures to be honest, camera on the phone is always blurry in low light. Need a proper camera !

8.5" front and 9.5" rear - BBS CH-R with stainless steel rim protector (replaceable!). Now to spray up the brake hubs and inside area of the rusty disc and calipers.

Any ideas on the best colour for the calipers?

Look what was spotted in the Alps!
