I can't tell if those are the silver or the gunmetal vaiety? I'm guessing GM.

Yes, they're silver/gunmetal.

Not too bad for $2,100 for the wheels & tires (the tires were actually more $$ than the M6 Rep wheels!!!).

DrGP · 03-17-2007, 03:15 PM

The M6/M5 reps and Velocity Motoring wheels are very nice and very affordable. I don't think you can go wrong with either. PLUS, if you happen to damage one, it is not a major expense to replace one.

Ron@Modbargains · 03-17-2007, 04:34 PM

yeah $799 for a set of staggered m6 wheels silver/gunmetal is pretty cheap, cant go wrong. Those Michelins however, those are like the godfather of tires there. Looks good congrats.

Autobot · 03-17-2007, 07:56 PM

Looks great man

SV Concepts III · 03-17-2007, 08:34 PM

Looks great, I know you love the wheels and I'm sure you will love those PS2s. Great tires!

BmwOwnsMe · 03-17-2007, 08:58 PM

how's the finish on the m6 wheels? Are they painted or machined?

Enrique · 03-17-2007, 09:46 PM

Very Good choice of rims

SV Concepts III · 03-19-2007, 12:03 PM

They have a machined silver on the front of the spokes and painted/clear coated gunmetal finish on the inside of the spokes. Here is a closeup of a set at our new shop:

spacedogg · 03-19-2007, 12:11 PM

Looks great! Best looking 5 spoke design for the E90...imho.

Vinobien · 03-19-2007, 12:16 PM

I have the same wheels - they look great. Drop with HR Sport Springs and put a 10mm spacer in the rear and you'll be really pleased.

adc · 03-19-2007, 02:01 PM

It looks awesome, they're cheap... just one question:

Did you manage to weigh them? I'm very curious if they're any improvement over stock 18"s...

lkraven · 03-19-2007, 02:28 PM

Have you dropped that e92 on any suspension mods? Curious because it looks fine to me and doesn't appear to be dropped on anything but stock ZSP suspension.

I believe the 19" M6 Reps are actually lighter @ ~ 25 lbs./each than the 18" oem stock sport 5-star wheels; maybe someone from **********s.com or JSLeviSW could confirm.

I do know, however, that my Michelin PS2 tires are lighter than my oem Bridgestone RFT's.

No, no drop...stock suspension, and I don't feel like I need any drop or any spacers on the wheels; it looks good and performs well...I'm done messing with the setup!!!

Smokin hot!

SV Concepts III · 03-19-2007, 05:31 PM

Here are the specs right on our site, everything is on the product page:

http://jlevistreetwerks.com/store/%3...ae0658fc57047e

SIZE BOLT PATTERN OFFSET LIP
(inches) WEIGHT
(pounds)
18x8.0 5x120 ET-20 / 38 0 22.0
19x8.5 5x120 ET-35 0 24.0
19x9.5 5x120 ET 20 / 40 0 24.5
20x9.0 5x120 ET-20 0 27.0
20x10.0 5x120 ET-25 0 27.6

So the 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 are 24 and 24.5lbs respectively.

I agree, it looks great. Was curious to see if it needed a drop, and very pleased to see it doesn't... I'm not into really LOW cars, and I'd much prefer to keep the stock suspension.

Just waiting on those forged CSLs from Morr Alloys now.

The wheels look very nice. Seems they are a wheel of choice for the 335ittC. I've seen them on several but first time with the MPS2s...my tires of choice...on my 20s.
