Dinan wheels

Does anyone actually own these wheels made by Dinan for the 335i?

Somebody does. I saw a set on an Sepang Bronze E60 M5 today when I picked up my car at the dealer...word was that the owner just had one of the first Dinan CAI installed on his M5. We talked for a bit...he was suprising his daughter next week by upgrading her E90 with Stg. II Dinan flash + exhaust to full Stg. III...the third Stg. III that my SA will have done. He wanted to look an my dyno sheet, to which I obliged. He said he would be lucky to put down the TQ I did...

Further, the owner of our local independent Dinan shop has a set on his Leguna Seca Blue Dinan SC'd E46 M3.

I recall seeing a set of the Dinan wheels on an AW E92 in the Austin, TX meet pictures from Mother's Day...that car also had the Dinan by Brembo BBK with black calipers. It did not have painted side reflectors...these are the exact specs of Dinan's own 335 which leads me to believe it was the actual Dinan car...especially since no one on the board indicated it was theirs.

ET? estimated time? do you mean weight? They are 20 lbs. each. Lightest wheel I have seen for the car I think.

Do you mean the lightest 19" wheel?
Because, I have 17" wheels that I bought from tirerack that fit and they are 16 pounds.

Anything Dinan is over priced and not worth it. IMO

The Dinan wheels are/were actually made by Champion IIRC. They are really high quality.

Saw a set on an E92 on the Calgary BMW showroom, super nice and a really nice polished lip.

Huge room for Brembos too if you want an upgrade. The design of the wheel really lends itself to a BBK.

+1, those are forged and superlight, quality-wise should be on par with NEEZ, BBS, VOLK

true on all the qualities of the Dinan wheel...but it looks too much like a JDM wheel. it looks like it'd belong on a honda.
