Thoughts on wheels?
So, i've been looking at wheels for some time now and well....
I found these two.
I am a HUGE sucker for 5 spoke, double spoke wheels with a BIG lip....
So I present to you these two, I'll be going with either one of these two now, am leaning more towards #1....
Option 1....
Ruff Racing 278s In Hyper Black 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with a +20 or +35 offset lug patter 5x120
Option 2....
Front Size: 18x8.5
Front Lip Size: 2-3/4"
Rear Size: 18x9.5
Rear Lip Size: 3-1/2
I also found these, but I dunno... just something about them doesn't say yes.....
Ruff Racing 280s In Titanium 18x8.5 with a +35 offset and 18x9.5 with a +45 offset lug patter 5x120.

I prefer option 1. If not those, get option 2 because option 3 looks like a big starfish.

I think 1 or 2 would be good if you have to pick those 5 spoke wheels

Have you thought about these? I saw these in a BMW dealer on a 330d (yeah, Diesel) that was slammed on the ground. They are Hammann one-piece forged wheels that when I asked the price for them I almost went into cardiac arrest(almost $9500 without tires)  !!

Option 1 is really tight though.

I like #3 a little, but not as much as #1 nor #2, just something odd about #3... maybe mrkbik is right

Hey I don't know what price you got on these, but my prices are great. Let me know if I can get you a quote on these. I can save you some money. My company name is unique customs in Spartanburg SC. I just started my business selling wheels and tires. I still work at the BMW Plant but i'm soon to be working completely in my business. Let me know the year of your 330 and the size, brand and type wheel you want. |

I'm thinking 100% option 1 with a red capiler big brake kit. But don't listen to me.
