My new 373m wheels!
Finally got some wheels! After researching my options, I came across a set of new take off 373m wheels at a local BMW dealer. For the price and look, I'm satisfied.
Thinking about painting the calipers that M blue next. Last edited by KL 14MILE; 07-22-2014 at 08:46 PM.. |

Great looking wheels. Throw on some front and rear spacers to really set them off.

Spacers, a little drop and some blue calipers will set it off! Looks good

They look great, even though I kind of like the 364s on the Active Hybrid models to set your cars apart from us gas drinking pigs. What I don't like though is all of the "Active Hybrid" writing on the side, they could have put a simple "A.H" on it to set it apart
Either way, your car looks beautiful (aside from all of that writing, but I get it).

Thanks to all for the compliments and feedback. I'm gonna do my research on spacers. If anyone has recommendations, let me know.
Wrickem I agree BMW over did the badging. It was a pain to plastidip all 3 badges. It makes sense from a marketing perspective. I've had plenty of people come up to me surprised about the fact that BMW makes a hybrid. |

In terms of spacers, I'd like to know how the Macht Snell rate against the H&R's Trak+ spacers. Two diferent set ups from what I can make out - MS have longer wheel bolts passing right through the spacer from wheel to hub whereas the Trak+ spacers are moulded with their own bolts that attach to the hub then the standard wheel studs bolt into the spacer itself. What's the better option fellas?

Thanks for the compliments. I was thinking of getting rid of the badges before I plasti dipped them, but it has grown on me. I think it sets apart my 5 from others.

Great looking wheels. I was going to go with these too, but loved the concavity of the Style 303's. You could run 10mm front and 15mm rear spacers with no issue.

Thanks for compliment and the specs for the spacers. I think the best OEM wheels for the f10 are the 303, 343, 373, and possibly the new M3/M4 19" 437m wheels in black with the greyish spokes (even though I haven't seen anyone with them yet).
