Opinions requested on wheels

youloze · 01-15-2024, 03:25 PM

Hi all, I've been having a tough time narrowing down wheel choices and colors. I decided to put the wheels from my Audi S5 on the M2 since I always liked how they looked and I think I'm liking them!

Obviously the offsets are wrong, but overall I'm liking the look of the wheel and the brushed silver color. I'm surprised I like the color because I've always felt that silver wheels on Zandvoort was too light.

What do you guys think? It's obviously ultimately my choice what I go with, but would like some opinions. I also included a photo of them in a gunmetal look and I still like the silver better.

Interested in your thoughts, but I think I'm going to buy these in the proper offsets for the M2. Thanks!

The wheel design looks good. I'd go with gunmetal over silver, but I like dark wheels.

Thanks for the input. I honestly was set on gunmetal until I put these on. I think the silver pops more and wasn't weird looking like I thought it would be on Zandvoort.

I think they look great, especially the silver. What size are they?

They are off of my Audi so they are a square setup of 20x10.5. but when I order for the M2 they will be 20x10 and 20x11.

Dark Brushed Clear would add just the right amount of darkness to the wheel.

normally I LOVE gunmetal, but silver looks so good with ZB!

Thanks for the input. I wasn't sold with the silver on Zandvoort until I put them on. They really pop on the blue and the brake calipers look brighter with them as well.

Love the look; they are a little light for my taste but they do look good.

Thanks! I definitely like the look of the wheel on the car. I think I'm leaning heavily toward the silver over gunmetal though. It's a very refreshing look I feel.

10.5 +32, but in the photos I'm running 15mm/18mm spacers from the OEM BMW wheels.

ZB is my least favorite color, and the only wheels I've seen it well matched with are gold.

If you didn't want to get offended, why ask for opinions online? I gave you my honest thoughts and here you are throwing a fit. Lol. Maybe you didn't want opinions after all?

ourlee · 01-31-2024, 10:19 AM

Yeah, naysayers are welcome imo. If we all liked the same thing etc etc …

Haha throwing a fit and offended? I didn't ask what color M2 you liked. You're a douche. Carry on.

I like the 1000M wheels in gold with ZB.

So..... Let me get this straight ...

You pop into this forum and ask for people's opinions .... then when you get one you don't like, you act like a child and insult a long time forum member and frequent contributor?

Nice.

Nice.

I didn't ask about the color of my car. His "opinion" had nothing to do with my post and was not helpful in the slightest. My initial reply to his unhelpful opinion was not out of line in any way and he's the one that dragged it on.

Anyway, you'll be delighted to know I'm ordering my wheels and nobody needs to reply to my thread any longer. Have a great day.
