New 300Ms - thanks ncraig

Just picked up these babies and hope to get them on next week (as soon as my DWSs show up).

Big thanks to ncraig for being an awesome guy to deal with.

I assume these are reps if your putting these on a non-m
How much did these run if you don't mind me asking?

Getting them bored on Monday to fit the non-M.

This is a good (long) read for anyone considering new wheels, reps or otherwise.

It essentially says "do not buy ADV.1" wheels. Love it!

Ha - exactly!

Though the same factors should really be taken into consideration when looking at any wheel purchase.

I can count the wheel brands I'd personally buy from on one hand.

Snapped a few quick pics of the finished product on the way into the office.

Love the look, and the ride of the DWSs is great!

I am looking for new wheels so I would be interested in what those brands are and what good and bad experience you've had.

300m make E70 looks so good.
I don't see any reason to get any other aftermarket wheels.
(BBS 21" looks great but I really don't like tire selections for 21s).
Color combinations are great too. Congrats!

Well know, the owner Jordan scammed so many people when he ran 360 forged, guy was balling out of control, crazy real estate, a Ferrari and his suppliers weren't getting paid, and his customers weren't getting their wheels. He claimed he made restitution, but who knows, he was banned from 6speedonline for a while.

Its funny, because all the other suppliers still carry his wheels. Caveat Emptor.

Here is Jordan's side of the story

Stick with OEM, BBS, HRE, Volk, or Advan (not to be confused with ADV.1) and you can't go wrong.

BBS and HRE both make E70 fitments, so my advice would be to find one of the vendors on the forum that sells either of them to get advice on offsets.

Going direct could also work, but I just think a vendor would be more eager to help in an effort to earn your business.
