I've got an F31 340i. As much as i like the 405m wheels in terms of style I just feel it doesn't give the car the look I want. My preferred wheel is the 763 but they're super expensive and not keen on going for replicas out of fear of breaking them as the roads near me are not the best. 437m is nice too but a bit common in my opinion. Any forged recommendations (pictures would be appreciated)?

Thanks

Nice set of 624m's listed in the classifieds today. I went with the 437m on my 440i, although I agree they're fairly common, they're forged and I think they look really good.

442m and 400m are my personal favourites.

IMO for OEM; 437s are hard to beat and 400s for winters...

If you want to splurge; get some Apex alloys

I agree the 437m look great was just wondering if there were alternatives that maybe made the car stand out a bit more - I think 763m would do the trick but within my criteria of forged/OEM-look and not stupidly expensive they make the 437m make most sense.

Stunning looking car by the way

What about this finish. I think they're stunning...

So are you looking for 19 or 20 ?

If you wanted forged and a oem look then I think that 437m might be your only option. In the sub 1k price range.

They do look great on 437s.

wow, they actually look really good in that finish. I bet that finish would look good on a black car too, worth thinking about if I ever get mine referbed. Only thing which would worry me is the re-sale of them after being finished like that.

Are you two running spacers with those wheels?

Don't worry about the resale too much; wheels are a personal choice... Most buyers will want the car and change the wheels to suit their tastes etc

How about Apex VS-5RS?

19x9 ET30 & 19x10 ET40. 245/35/19 & 265/35/19.

Forged, so very light and strong.Furthermore, apart from mine, I doubt you'll see many UK cars running them!

Did you source yours via Tegiwa?

[blau3er]

Yes, came through Tegiwa. Really easy to deal with!

Apex VS-5RS look amazing 🤩
Think I’d go with those if you’re looking for something a little different.

I also love the look of the lighter (ferric? + diamond cut) or just plain silver 437m’s on the dark car.
The gloss black + diamond cut is a bit too dark for what I’m aiming for with the overall look but hey ho they’re lovely wheels and came up for sale on here recently from a top guy so I’m happy with them.

Figment wise - as has been said, no spacers with the genuine 437m’s. They are much more aggressive offset and wider, being from the M cars.

Mine do rub on the fronts when in heavy front end compression on a tight windy road. Needs bringing up a few mm.
