Sparkling Graphite e92 Rim Advice

dionisk · 01-04-2012, 08:10 AM

Hello, im on a sparkling graphite e92 prelci. M3 rep side skirts. Looking to get new rims, budget of around 1k, though cheaper is better. Preferably 18inch as 19inch would require me to get new tires.

Im leaning with either m3 style or perhaps csl styles. Leaning with probably gunmetal or silver, but im not too sure. Don't want matteblack or any other black as I want some contrast and don't want the batmobile look.

Thanks

This was asked a couple of months ago do. Do search and you will find it. Plenty of good info there. Also check the official SGM picture thread for ideas.

I also have SGM and was thinking gunmetal rims too. SGM is a tough color to match up with IMO. I ended up getting silver because I like the contrast. I would have gone matte black if got black kidney grills and black shadowline.

I searched for a year and looked through a lot of different pictures to see what fit my SgM the best. From what I saw, 19's really fit the car well and personally I ended up going with Miro 111s as the looked the best based on what I saw. I got the rims alone on special from 88 rotors in ca for a price way below your 1k budget.

The are the best pictures I found after a year of research. Hopefully they help you make your decision.

As to what rims all these are I can't remember except for the 111s

I'd recommend that you check out the VMR VB3 CSL wheels as they do feature a timeless design. Here are a few pictures for you to check out!
