touring wheels pic's

[BMJG]

I'm thinking of changing from my standard 15" bbs rims on my touring and would love to see what others have done please to give me some ideas, on size to go and style.

[shedrool83]

15" mim 1900




16" borbet a's



17" unknown

[BMJG]

have another go as all pic's are the same

very clean touring though

[shedrool83]

Sorted lol

[BMJG]

borbets seem to work i think on the touring as hate them on others.. thanks again for sorting....lol

[BadDave]

18" AEZ Icon 5's with 35 section rubber.
Not sure of the drop, as it's on coilovers

[spook]

15 inch RS Speedlines

[BMJG]

BadDave whats the ride like on those as sort of like it and how wide are rims and tyres etc any probs etc

Ride is firm(550Lb/in on the front,and 225Lb/in on the rear)
They are 7"wide with a 40mm offset and a 30mm wheel spacer to clear the 6 pot calipers.

No problems with tyres fouling on bodywork with that spring rates(IX kit not fitted yet,just poorly photoshopped atm)

May be moving up to some 7 1/2 x 18's with 45mm offset in the near future though. Again with 215/35 rubber

[kerrie]

M3 reps, 17 inch, no drop in these pics, have dropped the car since this photo on 30/30 the rear has stayed the same! as in the pics just more stiff.

[BMJG]

i am pants at up loading pic's but i own the touring in this topic now if you want to see my car (My pride and joy in the bodyshop) in the photo gallery section

[parkin10]

no idea what these wheels are
what do we think?

[BMJG]

liking the load of tourings but so far think it might be the borbets that i think work best for me, but will see what others have laters. what ever i get will then have to sell off the set of 5 bbs as can't store wheels anymore.

carry on more wheels on tourings please ideas needed

[gareth]

just attack the BBS's with some black paint

[BMJG]

gareth did cross my mind as one set is mint and others are ok, thought of painting centers and polishing lip. Mine is Lachs silver with tec 2 kit dropped 40mm

[Sanchez]

All I have to say from my side is........... I wish we got the touring in Sout Africa coz I want one...

[bmw-mad]

Hartges for me too

[inlovewithRWD]

Those Hartges look great on the tourings. Mine are currently being refurbished and can't wait to see them fitted on the iS.

[BMJG]

Loving this starting to get the right ideas i think, this touring of mine just might end up a keeper
