Has anyone seen a 1er with M6 (rep) wheels? It doesn't matter if it is a 5 door or a 3 door. I would even like to see if someone could PShop them onto the coupe.

I just think that they would look sick.

Rough pchop... here you go (18" M6 reps)

[imported_tdc]

Wow, that actually looks good.

In my mind's eye I didn't think it would.

[335i=:)]

I have them on my e90, they look really good. Surprisingly, I know. I'm sure they will be a sure thing on the 1er. I think I'm going either ac schnitzer type 5 forged or bbs lm's though.

[mlevere1988]

I keep going back and forth between the black wheels with a red rim stripe and these wheels on a red 1er. I was leaning towards the black wheels but this makes it even harder to choose.

BTW, thanks Feli_330i vbmenu_register("postmenu_17309", true); for doing the Pshop.

One thing I did for those of you thinking about getting a black oner. I had the M6 reps custom painted so that instead of the grey paint, it's black paint. Then paint the calipers black and the high hats black, looks really good on a black oner, or a white one for that matter. Or if your planning on doing any carbon fiber mirrors, spoilers, splitters, etc, it's compliments them better.

What is the offset for the 1er?

man with these high offsets we cant even run any e46 or e90 wheel combo. :mad:

The M6 wheels look outrageously hot on a 3-series coupe too...

[Legion5]

What do you expect the car has an extremely small size, so to create a proper track in the suspension the wheels have to have a huge positive offset.

The good part is this can easily be fixed with 20mm wheels spacers.

The bad part is the look could very possibly turn out extremely odd.

I hate those wheels on the M6.

They look GREAT on the 1er!

Are they available in 18s?

[fishbulb]

Of all the BMW rims, I just don't care for those. ( I know they ar the rage right now...) But, they do not look as bad as expected on the 1-er.

I much prefer the CSL style, or even the Z4 M split 5 spoke. Again, offset issues....

[emm3tt]

Those are going to be hot on the 135i.

[STI-135]

Not feeling them in the slightest. For a 5 spoker they look oddly tiny.
Get some BBS's on this thing and it will be crushing.

[marcosowns]

I think that looks pretty good, but wouldn't go out of my way to get them.

Doing a research on M6 Replica wheels, 17", offset 35... with tires 205/50.. Anyone know if this will fit on 128i sport pkg?

[david @ eas]

Not really feeling the M6 reps on the 1 series. I would still stick with the CSL style wheel that we have in stock and ready to go:

[ptack]

They're pretty nice if they were just another wheel. Unfortunately, we know where they're from so it's kind of a wannabe look. I'd almost be embarassed to pull up to an M6. They might say something like, "oh how cute, you have my wheels on".

[Alan]

It's just for winter... and it's cheap.. that's all... however.. wonder with 17" with 35 offset will actually fit on 128i....

I dont agree with that. Many people put replica wheels on their cars. They are just wheels. Its not like a 135 driver putting an M6 badge on their car...now that would be something to laugh at!
