I am going with ZB, so I think a subtle color will work better, if I was going with black or even grey I'd probably get the frozen purple from litespeed.
We went through all of the colors on the litespeed site, and then since Patrick said he could do any colors we looked through the color list on the HRE site, and still landed on the dark bronze.

Cool.. and with anything, its your final choice. Before changing from ZB to BG, I considered hyper gunmetal and hyper black.

I agree with your wife. I'm not a fan of busier wheels on the M2, but that's just one man's (and woman's) opinion.

Please post photos once you've got it all together. I think the combo will look great.

And do you have any idea of the price? I went to their website and menus without dollar signs always make me nervous.

Feel free to PM me if posting would be frowned upon.

These rims have the exact same dimensions as the stock rims, so is there a need to be concerned about alignment/offset as long as the tire profile/dimension is the same as stock tire profile/dimension?

If I’m incorrect, please let me know because I do not know anything about tire/offsets/alignment. Any videos would be appreciated!

Additionally, did you have to buy an OEM Tyre Pressure Sensor set for this? Can this sensor be used for all rims/tires or do you have to buy another set each time you buy a different rim/tire set? If the former, then why?

Honestly just search the specifications, it's easy. Yes they are the same. You only need to buy new sensors if you also buy new tires for your rims. Otherwise, you can reuse the existing sensors.

Apex, VT Forged, Edelweiss, and of course BBS are all pretty popular.

VT Forged and Apex are definitely what I will consider when I eventually get wheels.

Agreed on these options. +1 for VT Forged specifically.

You can also add Vorsteiner to the list.

Das sind die Felgen, die ich bekomme.
RADKRAFTRÄDER MODELL: CF.4 FF R Es sollte auch 20-Zoll-Felgen für die Hinterachse geben. Der Versand in die USA ist kein Problem. Ich schicke wieder Bilder, wenn sie auf meinem M2 montiert sind.
Grüße aus Deutschland

These are the rims I get.
POWER WHEELS MODEL: CF.4 FF R There should also be 20-inch rims for the rear axle. Shipping to the USA is no problem. I'll send pictures again when mounted on my M2.
greetings from Germany

What do you guys think of BC Forged, Signature wheels, and Litespeed Racing?

The BC KL series has a few good options though I am not seeing weights or offsets listed.

Signature sv104 as well but also not seeing offsets or weights.


The RS5RR from Litespeed looks promising but still not seeing weights or offsets readily available

Also not sure if any have G87 specific fitting without adapters?

Litespeed does have the weights under the pricing tab. I believe the weights listed are for the RS5RR as that is their lightest wheel.

Crazy coincidence that VT Forged is being mentioned. I just saw a Youtube video of a G87 owner who bought their wheels (it is the red one in their gallery).



He wanted to get 19 fronts and 20 rear, but since he got a two piece wheel the tops and bottoms of his front break calipers were rubbing against his new wheels. He had to go 20s all around because apparently getting a two piece in 19s makes the barrel of the wheel smaller. I did not know that.

Ya Tuxon_Speed made a post about the 2 piece scenario and fitment.

Personally I love their monoblock SLA. Great bang for the buck, looks great, much lighter than our cast boat anchors, comes in a ton of finishes and their offsets are about perfect no spacers needed.

For example, here's a quick search to compare.

826M $2,656.37

1000M $3,646.18

There are also deals to be had where they sell the wheels with tires for a reduced rate. I've seen BMW M wheels/tires sets with Michelin's sell for up to 40% off. Just have to be diligent. There are also group buys that come up. It's totally doable without killing your pocketbook. Wheels make a huge difference in the look of a car, they're worth every penny.
Love the 1000M’s but the sizes are still wrong amd the offsets are terrible.
And before you say spacers,,, it defeats the peruse to have bud dorear perfoamce wheels that need spacers to add weight and make them fit right
