What do you guys think of this wheel???

aus · 11-28-2007, 06:19 PM

This is a new design by MORR Alloys (VS8), which has made a very nice forged wheel for the E90 crowd. This is there next project. It wouldn't be too hard for them to make a wheel for this 1-series if there was interest. It's very light at 20 lbs for a 19" wheel. Here's their link: http://morralloys.com/wheels.php

MastaMind · 11-28-2007, 06:25 PM

I like it a lot. Too bad their other thread was deleted. Forged with concave spokes

krassanova · 11-28-2007, 07:04 PM

These look great. There is another thread about HRE P40's which look a lot like these wheels, but aren't made for any BMW products.

aus · 11-28-2007, 10:13 PM

But these will probably be around $2200-2400 for a set!!!

semaj · 11-29-2007, 12:06 AM

If only these were 18"...

aus · 12-05-2007, 10:33 PM

Not a bad price either, considering it's a forged wheel.

I have followed morr alloy products on e90post, and was hoping they would make some for the 135i. I contacted Carlos from morr alloys, and he emailed me back saying that they would indeed begin working on wheels for this car as soon as it comes out. The concavity, and the fact that it is forged, makes it an exciting choice if it's offered.

aus · 12-15-2007, 11:00 AM

The price is even better now. Here's a SWEET PS s2ktoo135 made on E90post of the VS7.

sugeray · 12-17-2007, 02:26 PM

These look just like the M3 CSL allows, which cost about $4,700 a set.

aus · 12-18-2007, 12:58 AM

These are better than the CSL's because they're lighter. I could actually feel the difference when I put the VS7's on the car last weekend. The thing would just fly when you punched it on the freeway.

BForbes · 12-18-2007, 11:19 AM

Hey s2kto135i is me!!! Haha. The car in my signature has the VS8's as well.

ZAMIRZ · 12-18-2007, 05:19 PM

Either these or HRE P40 will be 1 of my first mods, followed soon by suspension and then some basic engine mods.

aus · 01-05-2008, 03:05 AM

I just hope there's enough interest here for MORR to produce the wheel. They usually need around 20 people to get a wheel started.

new_one · 01-05-2008, 05:47 PM

hand up

Berduderunner · 01-07-2008, 06:28 PM

TunedM2C · 01-08-2008, 07:29 PM

VS8's = great price + great materials + great looks + ~20 lbs. ea.

No brainer for me.

Morr Alloy: when's the 1addicts GB?!

Vickyy · 01-18-2008, 08:50 PM

looks awesome.. forged and lighted weight...

bimmerbimmer · 02-11-2008, 05:50 PM

love the look + concave + forged + light
gray powdercoat - Great idea!

new_one · 02-12-2008, 09:43 AM

If you haven't seen the thread look for the Morr Group Buy for more information.
