M3 matte competition wheels Y 359 fit 1M

wabbit · 07-13-2011, 05:51 PM

will they fit my 1M ? want to be sure since the price is 9000 $ usd.

1VOM · 07-13-2011, 10:16 PM

the rims that come on the 1M are style 359 so those matte rims should fit. $9000 seems extremely high for the rims. Where are you purchasing them from?

Greenkirby21 · 07-13-2011, 10:28 PM

why dont you just paint the oens that come with the 1M?

yep that's the same i keep saying to my dealer, but they are a little bit dumb because they dont even know their products, i'll send someone else to buy the wheels , saying i he owns a M3 hehe cause they keep saying those are not for my car. Mexico by the way, hate prices here!!

it's a good thing to do? 'cause i'm afraid of some kind of issues with the paint

miiipilot · 07-13-2011, 11:44 PM

I vote for just painting them.

Or...Do you have a friend in the states that can order them and them ship them down?

Or take a roadtrip to the states and grab a set.

wow... $9k on the rims???/ really??? i'm sorry, your money is none of my buisness, but living in a 3rd world country, isn't there something better you can do with it? like help the kids? just aside from the fact that the car already comes with said rims...

Very nice

Have ordered white also with performance seats, carbon rear & front spoiler.

Black wheels look great..... What did it cost from dealer?

Cheers

superchargedman · 07-14-2011, 07:22 AM

Beautiful! Are they gloss black?

if you have to buy the wheels (instead of painting), check with Turner motorsport or Tischer bmw. Price is around $2200 for the set. If they ship overseas, even with high shipping costs, it wont be $9k.

M3 Adjuster · 07-14-2011, 10:41 AM

Talk to a body shop or powdercoater about painting the wheels. It should run under $150 per wheel to have them painted or powdercoated your choice of fashion colors. Don't believe the hype that either process damages the integrity of the wheel. Do be careful and check the torque on newly painted wheels as they break in and the lug bolts seat on the metal.

Ive only see high gloss powder coat. Is matte possible? Any weight increase?

sorry, newbie Q's - never painted rims before

wabbit · 07-14-2011, 11:17 AM

AlpineM3E92 your car looks b-e-a-u-tiful!!!

any trouble with the paint?, i think i'll do it ...
'cause i'll also buy the performance spoiler and the mirror caps.
you make me realize it's kind of stupid to spend that much in new wheels that look the same only in black

thanks hehe

There is an array of colors. This place has almost 300

http://www.imspowder.net/Colors/Stoc...5/Default.aspx

Just a link I found on google as an example, not a recommendation

PyratOne · 07-14-2011, 11:31 AM

^^^ thanks papethova

Always liked the matte grey color (not rim style) of this modified 135

M3 Adjuster · 07-14-2011, 11:59 AM

as Paptethova pointed out... a WIDE array of fashion colors is available in glossy, matte, textured (like anodized) or metallic.... I have had wheels painted silver, also a cool metallic chrome, and had things like valve covers and sway bars or sub frames painted as well at a local powdercoater..

You guys need to stop replying with the attachments, PLEASE!

Do we really need to see the picture 4 time on one page?

Too much scrolling damn it! lol

lhsa · 07-14-2011, 07:16 PM

painting is safer for wheels; powdercoating can compromise integrity.

PyratOne · 07-15-2011, 09:24 AM

^^ elaborate please?

I can only imagine its the heating step to get powder to "melt", but I really have no idea
