Thoughts on wheels? - United Bimmer Community

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.

Option two, hands down.

agreed.

Those are the hottest fucking wheels ever.
just cause im sick of double spokes.

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

**celsdogg** · 02-23-2007, 08:23 PM

out of these three i say option 1.

**Cartony** · 02-23-2007, 08:33 PM

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

witeshark · 02-23-2007, 11:24 PM

It's close, but I like 1. I think

yes well thats really a great help considering there are only two options

Am I the only one that likes 3 a little bit? I say option one. those would be motherf***ing hot.

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

I like #2 and just think, cleaning will be easier!

**Kiterunner** · 02-24-2007, 08:19 PM

OPTION 1..........a bit tedious to clean.....but they would look good.
