20" M6 style wheels arrived

XenaBimmer · 01-18-2012, 06:34 PM

The set of 20" M6 style wheels that I ordered from **********s.com arrived today; they are staggered 8.5" front and 9.5" rear, 245/40/20 and 275/35/20 Continental DW tires. The quality is great and I can't wait to get them mounted up! Will post pics once that's done.
The Cayman decided to make a guest appearance

Eagerly awaiting pics....

turbotoy4me · 01-19-2012, 12:14 AM

Cant wait to see them installed. Love the Porsche wheels, very similar and beautiful.

nonagon · 01-19-2012, 05:44 PM

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing pics of them installed. Nice Porsche too!

fiddy yen · 01-19-2012, 07:11 PM

what's the offset of the wheels? eagerly awaiting pics!!!

XenaBimmer · 01-19-2012, 10:25 PM

Installed them tonight and took a quick pic. The offset is +35 front and rear.

Its funny but the picture angle makes the fronts look bigger than the rears. Love the rims.

Like those a lot

epiphone3 · 01-20-2012, 11:01 AM

looks great! hope to see some more pics. How's the quality of the wheels? Any vibrations or other issues?

Rogerbu · 01-20-2012, 01:30 PM

Its not an illusion, the front wheel/tyre circumference is actually larger than the rear - by 0.5% (1.7cm).

You would have to be pretty observant to see that difference.

XenaBimmer · 01-20-2012, 05:53 PM

The quality of the rims is outstanding and they ride really nice; they don't feel any harsher than the previous 18's.
I took some more pics today also

Any suggestion for winter tires size if I want a set of staggered 18 inch M6 replica rims?! Thanks a lot!!

Le Chef · 01-22-2012, 01:03 PM

You need 245 x 50 18". I would caution running those wheels in a snowy climate. Once snow gets between the spokes - which it will - you will have out of balance wheels. Just an FYI.

TN_3 · 01-22-2012, 04:08 PM

Love the look...especially on the Space Gray M-Sport. Thanks for giving me something else to want...oh, and Go Vols!
