I HAD A SET ON MY E32. They weigh over 25 lbs EACH, WELL outside the operating limits of the Bimmer's(ALL bimmers') suspension! They look GREAT, do not get me wrong, but your unsprung weight almost DOUBLES from that of the std. bmw forged wheel.


ALSO:
The HM2s are only about 350 each from Wheel Power, and I bet a group purchase would bring that down to around $295...

My old set is FOR SALE, less than 1kmiles on them, if anyone wants them (no scratches!) $250 each, plus 2 new DUNLOP ZR tires, 100 each (But, BUYER BEWARE!) I am SELLING mine for a reason...THEY WEIGH TOO MUCH for a bimmer(though they are "made" for a bimmer. WOBBLE WOBBLE WOBBLE WOBBLE.

sorry to step on toes...

Joe
