Has anyone had any experience with these, can't really find a review. The price is nice but just wanted to see if they were any good!

Can you post pictures or specs? Are they pressure cast, gravity cast, forged?

FWIW I was in their shop a few weeks back and they had some wheels on display for both BMW and Mercedes. They looked like OEM wheels from what I could tell and they looked very nice.

Interested in the same thing, not much info on these.

I had a set of their Matte Black St160s , 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 on my E46 M3

Great looking wheels, had no problems with them. Held strong.


Would definitely recommended them. Great price

I would, but I want a non-biased opinion. The supplier isn't going to tell me they suck.

No but the supplier should be able tell you whether they are gravity cast, pressure cast, forged, what the load rating per wheel is, are they powder coated, TUV approved etc. This is useful information as it relates to the wheel's build quality and likely how durable the wheel will be over the long term.

Certainly user reviews are helpful, but if there are not a lot of reviews out there the chances are you will not get a broad enough range of reviews to provide you with the type of information you are looking for, which is where the details described above come will come in handy when making an educated decision as to whether a wheel is good quality or not. Just my $.02.

Hey - I have two sets

Sonic Tuning is really great actually. I saw they were local so I called them up and asked about their products. The wheels are pretty solid. I got csl low pressure cast from them for winter and bbs lm reps also low pressure cast for spring summer.

PM Jose if you ever have questions. He invited me to swing by and they are 100% legit. Everything is in stock so they are one of the better vendors IMHO.

I have the coilovers too - but dc roads suck to much to put them on at the moment. Come March/April its off to the autox and 1/4mile!!!!

I appreciate it, didn't mean to come across as a dick, but I wanted to hear from someone that has purchased and drove on them.

They are low pressure cast? Thought they would be gravity.
Thanks for sharing your opinion.
Did you also get the federal tires?

[Jake@MOTIV]

Some of the sets are gravity and some are low pressure. I went with the csl and lm because i knew they were low pressure cast. They'll order whatever tires you want. I didn't want the federals
