looking for a set to purchase.. also considering a trade if any1 would like my 18" forgeline wc3

[STALKER]

Good luck.
Ppl tend to hold on to these babies.
Best bet it is to keep your eye open on M3forum.com. They pop up every now and then over there.

[Diesel Dud]

ive noticed

i found a sick deal bout a month and a half ago... the guy HAD to sell em within a couple days
i was ready to drive down 4 hrs to get em but..
too late :Qboy:

[STALKER]

They are pretty sick wheels. Glenspeed has a set.

yes i noticed i was hoping he was getting tired of them :indiffere

[glenspeed]

not a chance...everytime I look at those wheels I start drooling...

good luck in your search, to me they are the holy grail of wheels so hope you find a set...

[STALKER]

Get LMs, not RS-GTs.

[Diesel Dud]

Get LMs, not RS-GTs.

glen hands down on the 19s or should i consider 18s as well?

[STALKER]

With LMs, since they have a step lip, I would go 19".

i hear u on the step lip

i was thinking of puttin on my forgelines this spring but i need new tires and want to powder coat the rims since im not into the polished look..

for a little more i figure i might as well shop for a 'like new' set of LM with tires already mounted, avoid powdercoating, and regain some cash on the sale of the forgelines

every1 plz keep a close watch out for me thanks

[STALKER]

A little OT, but I had a few PMs about ppl asking me why I said not to get RS-GTs. I was just joking, I have them. They are both beautifully crafted wheels.

[Diesel Dud]

how r the 19s for street use?
the last thing i need is a bum py ride and some bent rims

[STALKER]

Ask Glen,he knows Montreal roads better then I.
I personally don't have a problem with them, but Tdot roads are better then roads in Montreal I have been told.

[glenspeed]

agree with Stalker, get 19's.

[glenspeed]

any 19 will be bent if you hit a pothole...so I would say no different than any other wheel. Rims are forged, so they are pretty strong, but you can't beat physics and any hard hit will bend any rim.

Any 19 will be harder on the bumpy roads than a 18, so that is something you will have to live with or else get 18's. I've been in Montreal on them and I would say they are no different than any other 19 including my OEM's.

[Diesel Dud]

hwys are fine.. they are federal
if regular roads have cracks and potholes, not the end of the world since they can usually be avoided based simply on speed
it's the service roads that kill.. horrible condition and hard to avoid, especially at night, thanks to speed

[Diesel Dud]

cool so that's 2 ppl sellin (hopefully not the same guys lol)

[STALKER]

If the rims on roadfly are in mint condition, then it might not be a bad deal.
Do they make LMs in 20" application for the M3?

[Diesel Dud]

what do u guys think of these?

http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=334546

they seem kinda roughed up IMO
more $ to make em look good :thumbsdow

how bout the falken tire model he's got? :sick:

[STALKER]

Peeling is a big issue, I would pass on those, especially at that price.

[Diesel Dud]

ya only way i would put those on is after a major powerdercoating facelift, which makes the asking price way too high

what the hell did the guy subject the rims to get that result.. i mean i highly doubt the finish is crappy enough to peel like that

[STALKER]

It might be from harsh cleaners. But not sure.

[Diesel Dud]

thanx pej

but for the price he is asking, he can keep em
4500US for used LM with tires.. wtf
can get em new for $4867

i passed up a chance to get some for 3800US.. outta my budget

[STALKER]

ya, its to much, but just thought I would let you know they are out there.

[Diesel Dud]

i appreciate any heads up
i regularly do a search for 'BBS LM' on all the sites and rarely turn up a thing

These would look stunning on your AW. If I had a black or white car, these would be my rims.

[Diesel Dud]

if BBS are my wheel of choice, that is my color of choice!

he's selling em 'like new', without tires
let's see what i get outta the email i sent him :)

[STALKER]

They are stunning wheels.

[Diesel Dud]

he's not selling for less than $4K US

[STALKER]

I figured that amount since they are pretty new. How much are BBS LMs new?

[Diesel Dud]

well depends where u look

staggered 19s avg out to around 4500USD without tires on tirerack

sponsor pricing on ms3forum is 4867USD with t1rs

he's obviously playin the market since he's got a rare set in mint condition
