Title: Thinking of goin euro on the Mv6
Post by: Christian on 20 January 2009, 18:47:36

Be4cause the Mv6 wheels are in need of re furbing (2) and because they are prone for buckeling, i think im gunn aget a set of 18's, buty must be BBS stlye if not BBS , want to go euro and possibly will need a nice Drop on the suspension aswell, thinking Irmscher for ride Quality.

Ile then get it all aligned so it dont rip tyres up.

What size tyres would you recomend

Also what style of wheel would you recomend?

Thanks :)

have a look thru the bmw alloys on ebay, there was a miggy up here with 18's and they were off a 5 series, newer shape. not sure if you will need wobbly bolts or not tho.  :y

MV6s already have sports suspension and are 45mm lower than an elite i believe!

my mate has just fitted M3 wheels onto his 3 Series tourer hes got 255 35 18s on the rear and 225 40 18s i think from what he was telling me

MMm the only set out of that list is these

That would be my type of style for a Euro look anyway.

Would these fit straight onto Mig?

Make sure you don't have the gay tyre look (no offence to any other side batters)

Those stretched tyres look so stupid

Yea not really into the stretced tyre thing, besides they could blow out so easily if too stretched.

I just want a nice set of Rims those style and maybe drop it a little more.  :)
