Finally got new Wheels!!

jftoha · 03-10-2012, 01:35 AM

Ok, after a couple of months of research (and suffering wit the hideous OEM RFT's), I ordered a set of wheels tonight. I've been looking for a set that looks understated, German/Teutonic but still very sporting. I considered the usual suspects that we have all seen, but also the more rare but renowned manufacturers like Alpina. I really wanted the 20" Alpinas, but ended up going with something a bit more unusual. Below are some images of the Kellener Hamburg wheels that I just ordered in 20"x9" and 20"x10". I believe one more member has these wheels (Perisak) but he leaves in Sweden.

You can also see Perisak car here http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=535779

I hope you like my choice. As soon as I install them along with the recently arrived AC Schnitzer springs, I will post some photos.

Those look great! You should post more pictures. By the way, what size and offset are your wheels? And your tires?

Cheers.

Hunter5179 · 03-10-2012, 10:08 AM

Nice choice. Look forward to seeing them on your car.

Happymao · 03-10-2012, 10:11 AM

Considering the poor condition of the roads in my country, I picked front 245/40/19, rear 275/35/19. Tires are Nitto Invo, very quiet and comfortable, value for money.

Here are more photos:

Wheels are nice, but look too much like factory 550 sport wheels.

Artur-F10 · 03-11-2012, 11:15 AM

How much were they?
and where I can order them? i cant find them...

jftoha · 03-11-2012, 12:51 PM

I paid $2,600 including shipping. They do come from Germany though and take a month to arrive. I ordered them from Bavarian Autosport. They are the official rep for Kenellers and and I believe the only ones that sell them.

I can't see the similarities with those, but I do think they look close to the wheels we first saw in Concept M5 prototype, which I fell in love with. Those have not gone into production though. I do like an understated design and was going for something subtle.

HouseofPang · 03-11-2012, 11:15 PM

One of my favorite wheels. Planning to get one myself in future too! Let me know when you get it with pics =) oh can you weight it too plz =)

datbimmerdoe · 03-12-2012, 03:29 AM

BigMikeTwn · 03-12-2012, 05:15 AM

Sure, I'll weight them before installation. Kelleners advertises their "Low Weight" everywhere but have not been able to find an actual number in Lbs or Kilos.

Pictures will come soon after for sure.

Ribo · 03-14-2012, 02:48 AM

As of yesterday, I also own the Kelleners Hamburg (20") wheels.
see this thread : http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=661829
I will post more pics soon.
I haven't had the chance to weigh them...

Ribo · 03-17-2012, 10:11 AM

Picture of my front wheel.

At Kelleners Sports they say the weight of the Hamburgs is :

9x20'': 15,59 kg
10x20'': 16 kg

mouivann · 03-19-2012, 06:29 PM

What finish are the wheels? Looks great!

I bought them at Sun Po Kong, around HK$5,000 each. The tires are very comfortable and quiet. Not yet lowered, but have purchased ACS and is waiting for the shipment.

Fitbb · 03-28-2012, 04:29 AM

My rims are Graphite Silver. Really great color I think. You'll love them when you put them on! I also lowered my car with Eibach Pro Kit springs.

Here's a pic of it below. (There are a few more in my "BlackVue Installation" thread too)
