concave 22's for under 3k possible? - XBimmers.com

mik · 10-30-2012, 09:34 AM

hey fellas, ive been stalking the classifieds looking for some wheels for my new to me 09 48i. my budget is 3k max. ideally around 2200. last resort is the tsw nurburgrings but the rear is not concave. can anyone recommend a nice wheel pkg in this price range, or if you have something used post it up, thanks

I have been looking for the same set up myself. Take a look at the Niche Nuremberg, as it is about $1600 + rubber.

Check out vertini wheels. Only problem from what i see is that the tires will push you over your $3k budget. I now the vertini magics that im looking to buy soon are $2500 for the wheels and the tires run approx 550-700 per...

Hope this helps

There are a couple options out there. They will be cast wheels, though.

The golden rule applies... You have to pay to play. You are not trying to buy both 22" rims AND the 22" tires for $3K, are you? If that is you objective, you might as well write that one off.

There was a guy trying to liquidate some in-stock True Forged rims for a reasonable price ($2,500 I think) on bimmerfest so take a look there to see if those are something you might like.

Look up XO Miami wheels. Your welcome. Within your 3 k budget and super concave like vossens.

I'd rather stick with an OEM wheel. I don't trust any of these wheel companies listed and don't want to put my $60,000+ vehicle at risk... Just my $.02...

help me out with the names please. as long as they are not chrome...i had 24" TIS and nitto tires on my tahoe, they were cast, with no problems. no bends, required very little weight to balance and a smooth ride. only downfall was their weight increased braking distance slightly...

as far as forged wheels go, 3k seems to be about right for a used set. i have at least 4 months of snow coming so there is no rush. hopefully some pop up...seems like the higher end stuff has its fair share of problems too. seen some hre's and some forgestars both with bends in them for sale.

Take a look at Giovanna Mecca's, probably what your are looking for, at a good price as well

yes, but i dont think the stock x5 brakes look good enough to be on full display.

I think they would look good. Getting a Forged wheel under the price is going to be difficult....
