Hey Guys and Girls
Looking into the Miro M6 Style wheels black, for my 335 19 x 9 http://www.**********s.com/product.a...ack_type346_MW i have read some stuff on the m5 boards that they are cast and to stay away anyone have any input? Anyone have them on there E90 / E92? Recommendations for alternatives? Thanks Marco |

I took the plunge and couldn't be happier. They look amazing on an e92, IMO. No issues with cracking / bending whatsoever, and I drive on Chicago roads, which are notorious for deep potholes. Just make sure you get decent tires (i.e. don't get the General UHP's) if you're worried about damaging a wheel; there's a strong preponderance of General UHP's amongst those that have experienced problems.

Forged rims are not common. Most wheels are cast. I think that the only BMW rims that may be forged are the real M rims. With cast the durabilty depends on the casting process and the wheel design along with how much rubber you place between the pavement and the rim. To say cast wheels are a "no no" on bad roads is odd as 99% of all rims are in fact, cast.
