    Default Need some opinions on wheels

    I was thinking of some style 66 FM replicas for my 535... does anyone have any experience with FM's or this company? Are they worth 400-500 for a set?

    Personally, I always liked the look of the Style 66 wheels. though I don't have any personal experience with the Wheel Exchange, they seem to have great eBay feedback and I know they've been around for quite awhile. Good luck.

    The M-Pars on my touring came from Wheel Exchange. For replica wheels I haven't heard anything bad about them.

    Scott,

    You just made up my mind! Rondell's for me please! Look at that lip! Are you running 17's? and if you don't mind could you PM me what Wheel Exchange was asking for them?

    personally i think 16's are an inch to small, if your going to get rims, and spend a few hundred, go fot that extra inch, or 2 even, but not 3. and in my personal opinion, i dont like 66's, if you want my opinion, and i think thats what this post is about, heres some of the best looking wheels on a e34
    m-pars
    style 5's
    milie migilia II (contraversial pick)
    RD 2's (what liquid has)
    BBS RK's
    t stars
    ect

    if it was me looking for wheels those would be on the top of my list

    i like the style 66's. however, i think they may look a bit odd in 16" size.
