the 329 he offers u.. does that include tires?

[ac388]

No. The 329 is offered from a tire store in which some of the guys(with 550) here did trade them in earlier.

[juztinl]

if it doesn't include tires.. then it is kind of ripping you off.. they took my 17" for 4k.. i wonder how much they pay for the 18".. probably not much more. and those included tires.
and i think 328 looks nicer. just my opinion

I think the store took the 18" for 8k or 9k including tires, so they are making around 11k from you. not sure if they will take your 17" for 4k.

if i were you, i would not change to 18". not much difference from the 17". agreed with juztinl that 328 looks much nicer, IMHO.

Mine has the 328 18 inch rims and it looks very nice

[grimlock]

329 the turbine ones .. would not show up on HK spec car .. unless it was special. but u can buy them separately anyway .. if 17k just rims. that is rip-off price .. good price if include tires ..
329 good for HK if u want to avoid 'crash' rims with other ppl, esp. later when lots n lots of f10 on the road..
328 is baby version of the full 19' one .. looks better, more ppl use
u can order through those importer shops, dun go back to that one la, since u have time .. u can get them to import a new pair .. it will be closer to list price+shipping ..

[juztinl]

i believe 329 is stock for 550i for hk spec. he's probably taking mlai's wheels.

[grimlock]

i thought it was the multispoke ones .. (don't know the number)

mlai should have swapped with him directly .. save $ on both sides
lets start a rim swap @hk service

[ac388]

The price is with tires. I personally think the turbine look on #329 is more unique.

My current 520i also have 18" on it, so u guys really think 18" is really too small for F10.

[juztinl]

ac388 when are u picking up your car. maybe you can check out the F10 more precisely at our meet this friday.

[ac388]

Pickup should be in 10 days. What time is your meet this friday ?

[juztinl]

[ac388]

the F10 tire set up is one size bigger than the E60, so if you have 18" on your F10 is like having 17" on your E60.

you can check out chiver's wheels, 19" and really nice.

[juztinl]

yea. i still need to see who's going to turn out..
how late is your match going to last till?

Hi Juz,

Yours look so good. Are they BMW original ? If not, what are they call ?
Will it be too bumpy for my 523i ? Since my wife keep complaining the 18" on the current E60 520i.

[juztinl]
