Ditto. I'm not familiar with the brand but they look the best of the one's you are choosing from.

iForged builds strong quality wheels that could last the test of time through the rough roads of Europe. Why not try these for an e93?
I recommended it to another member here and I think it'll look fantastic on an e93. Not too many members have those around here. |

Considering the prices of the wheels you've been looking at, I think some of the wheels in our range may interest you... a few pictures to help you visualize

The vendors making their presence felt.
But from those choices, I would go with the Dotz Mugello. |

Personally I would agree with going with the V710s for your car... The new colors Matte Black and Gunmetal look absolutely incredible, especially on our E92 M3. Just take a look at what we got and if you're curious on a set, feel free to send me a PM so I can send you some pricing on them
Hope that helps! |

Thank you for the suggestions.
It isn`t fair. One wheel in USA costs 280$ in Europe it is 280 euro which is 360 dollars My favorite for now is Breyton Race GTS Gun Metal I have a problem Which wheels are RunFlat compatible? Last edited by maximal; 12-05-2008 at 08:29 AM.. |

I haven't heard of a wheel that was (or wasn't) runflat compatible. The problem is usually finding a runflat tire to fit aftermarket wheels (larger diameter, wider and lower profile than stock). And if you do find the size you're looking for, they're very expensive. For e93 owners, we have to decide on runflats vs the possibility of being stranded if we experience a tire puncture or leak.
Some good news for you -- I just checked 280 euro and it's only $355 US now! |

I'd just get regular tires and your TPMS will tell you when they are low. You would usually have enough time to get the tire replaced, which would cost half as much as a run flat. |

From my experience flats generally happen because you have a nail in the tire or something of that sort. Then you have time go and get that tire replaced.

Can someone explain me what is the difference between a normal wheel and a wheel compatible with runflat tires? Breyton says that they are not compatible. TireRack says that there is no problem to put a runflat tire. I have found some info... runflat compatible wheels have a special ring. |

All wheels are compatible with runflats. Runflats are just tires, nothing more. If you really want runflats you can run them sure if you want but it's more expensive and the ride sucks.

Any E93's running V710's yet? I'm thinking about going in that direction.
