****Marcato Wheels One Piece Forged Group Buy****
Here is the update that you guys have all been waiting for. Marcato Wheels will be starting the first sale for the 1 piece forged line as a group buy due to the overwhelming response from this forum. Marcato’s 1 piece forged line of wheels will be made of 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum. The material will be forged with an 8000 Ton press and cut with a precision CNC machine located in our facility in Korea. All the wheels will pass a rigorous quality control test before they are boxed and shipped out. Size: The available sizes will be an 19x8.5 with a 2.5 inch lip and an 19x9.5 with a 3.5 inch lip. The offsets have been set at +35 in the front and +30 in the rear. This will achieve that aggressive look while still allowing you to lower the car and not have rubbing issues. Styles: The available styles to choose from are the MFM (Mesh Style), MFS (7 spoke split) and MFF (5 Spoke Split). Below are images of the current designs. The pictures don't reflect actual lip size. Fitments: The fitments are set up for the 3 series (2006–present) E90 E92 E93 and also 1 series (2008-present) E82 and E88. Finishes: The available finishes are Matte Black, Gloss Black, Titanium and Silver. (Matte Black)-Flat black paint with a dry ceramic clear coat. (Gloss Black)- Standard black paint with automotive high gloss clear coat. (Titanium)- Dark silver with a dry ceramic clear coat. (Silver)- Standard silver with automotive high gloss clear coat. Give the wheels an OEM style look Weights: The weights will vary slightly from style. The front 19x8.5 will be 18.5~19.5 pounds and the rear 19x9.5 19.5~20.5 pounds. These wheels are designed for better braking, acceleration and also cornering for the BMW enthusiast. All the Marcato wheels meet the standards of JWL and VIA. Marcato Wheels has designed these wheels to be compliant with your factory center caps and lug studs. Adapters will be supplied with each wheel so you can use your OEM TPMS units.
