Spec me some wheels

[TW]Fox · 5 Jul 2007 at 17:51

My wheels suck. They are too small, plus they are curbed, have suffered from having 500 miles a week of brake dust on them for years, blah blah. Plus I want to get it done before I get to the stage where I need new tyres on the back so my current wheels still have some resale value.

So, I'd like some new ones. 18". So far, I've narrowed it down to 4..

BMW Style 37's:

Hamann HM-2's:

AC Schnitzer Type III:

Which would you guys chose? Current ones are below.

Style 37's, they just look 'right' on Olly's(?).

AC Schnitzer Type III:

My choice would be the AC Schnitzer Type III definately.

The Hamanns look nothing special at all IMO and could be interchanged with any number of Japanese five spoke look-a-likeys
The 37's I am just not sure about. If you are want a standard look then sure.

37's are the business mate, chap down the road has a green 530 with those on and it looks great.

Style 37's because there lush and I couldnt get any when I got my m5 alloys

Kreeeee · 5 Jul 2007 at 17:57

37's by far, then your current ones. Please don't get any of the others, I'd cry

Type III if it were me!

Maz · 5 Jul 2007 at 17:58

Schnitzer

Choice 4....

Alpina alloys. Now, I like these, I like these a lot BUT I'm kinda worried they'd spend more of the time looking filthy simply becuase of how much of a faff keeping them clean would be..

andi · 5 Jul 2007 at 18:11

Probably the Hamanns. Those Alpinas are hideous

They make the side profile look a little bland imo.

Alpina alloys = win

Those AC Schnitzer's are growing on me though... hmm...

danza · 5 Jul 2007 at 18:13

Alpina > Schnitzer > 37's > yours > Hamann.

sigma · 5 Jul 2007 at 18:13

37's if you want alloys to retain the OE look to most peoples eyes

Type III if you want the car to stand out

Depends on what you're after
