BMW alloys ?

[modd1uk]

Was out on the bike today and saw an M5, thought to myself..those alloys would look sweet on my Leon, has anybody done it before ? Or any alloys that look like those, kinda dished in look ?

You can get adapters i think just come down to the ET offset you'll end up with. I saw some bmw csl for sale but the ET was to low

 

[MrBen2k7]

got a pic?

 

[modd1uk]

m6 rims.

 

[MrBen2k7]

wow, they'd look awesome if it can be done...

What colours your Leon?

you'll need huge brakes to pull that off...

in my opinion it looks :gay: when huge 5 spoke rims have tiny calipers and discs behind them.

Same here - looks pants if the brakes aren't up to scratch

 

[MrBen2k7]

need to have big disks, and big RED callipers with Brembo written on them...

Other wise your just like the chavs in their Corsa's with Barrels on the back...

offset on bmw wheels is up in the 15 to 25 range if i remember right, would never get in behind the arches as a direct fit let alone with hub adaptors... so cant be done without extensive arch mods. but if your willing to go for some nice blown arches or something id like to see it

 

[MrBen2k7]

shame maybe some ebay replica's?

 

[volvic]

give it some time, it is bound to be ripped for broader fitment

Yes the gaps between spokes on them wheels are huge and the spokes are quite narrow, you need seriously huge brakes to pull them off.

please don't.

I didnt think the M5 alloys were much like the M6 alloys? The M5 alloys as standard are 10 spoke 19" or so. Although the M6 ones are optional I believe!

very true. The M5 10 spokes are optional on the M6 and vice versa

Bollox to that idea then !

Gonna do some more revision.

Current list of maybe's are..

LCR 18"

RS6 replicas

RS4 replicas

TT replicas.

All in anthracite or black

Not sure what the Leon ET is or if the PCD on these ones is waaaay out, but could any of these fit?
