Difference between an m5 and m6 wheel
I am thinking of purchasing an OEM 20" wheel for my f10. Wanted to know if someone would mind posting a side by side pic of the m5 and m6 wheel. Which one is more concave? Thanks in advance guys.

Those are the M6 GC wheels (M433), and no they don't fit the F10, offsets are too low 9,5" and 31mm front and 10,5", 19mm rear.
You could get away with getting two front sets as a square setup though, or machine a set of rears to 35mm. There are aftermarket ones out there but only 19" and 20", and they appear to be cheap so I'm not sure about the quality. Think the M4 has a very similar design wheel and has an offset of 29 front (9") and 40 rear (10") so they should fit. Cant find this design in the parts catalog, but there are pictures online with them, could be available for the new 2015 M4 with the new organic light package, or they just used them on the concept car as in this picture.

The M6 rear wheels have too low of an offset for the F10. They will rub. You need to go with M5 wheels,and even with that, you need to run a slightly narrower tire than the M5 in the rear (285 vs 295).

Like I said, the wheel may have been use on a concept car shown at some car show. Also the M4 concept has different halos and headlamps than what the production versions have, but the new Laser headlamps look very much like the ones used on the concept car. It is therefore not impossible that these wheels may be an option on the -16 M4 along with the new laser headlamps and "organic rear lamps" or as part of a "facelift". Or they just used it on a concept car. the concept headlamps production LED headlamps. New LED headlamps thet will be available on -16 and possibly -15 M4 |

Here are some amazing renderings of what the BMW M4 Concept could look like. The photoshoped images are based on the BMW 4 Series Coupe …
