which wheels...decisions decisions decisions
Hi All,
I've got a Sapphire Black e92 with 18" staggered MV3 wheels and RFT winter tyres (rears pretty worn, but fronts have 3-4mm thread). Want to get some alloys as a next mod, but can't decide. I want a deep dish staggered 19" and I've narrowed it down to the 3 Cades Tyrus ones below (unless someone can convince me for another one?) Either: Cades Tyrus Gun Metal or Cades Tyrus black with polished lip or Cades Tyrus High Gloss silver All of the wheels are very similar in price, packaged with tyres and tracking from Hotline Tyres in Harrow |

had some Cades Tyrus on my old E46.
The machined lip doesnt stand up well to winter / salt on the road etc. Saying that not many wheels of this style do. Felt very heavy in comparison to MV wheels too. |

I looked at these wheels once upon a time...
Have you seen them in person? If not, i recommend you do as they look different to the pic imo. Otherwise.... Gunmetal for me! |

I believe Mark has the silver ones on his e92 now: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...5&postcount=58 I think I've ruled the black ones out now...I'm contemplating between the Gunmetal, Gloss silver and Powder silver at the moment |
