Unless you intends to buy the Original OEM M Badge yourself, foregoing the rep M badge is a good idea. They usually looks pretty damn ugly and the wheel looks better without it.

But on the other hand if you use the OEM M Badge, it makes your rep wheels looks pretty much like a genuine one lol.

My wheels came with a spot for them and I just reused the original stickers from my 400m wheels. The center caps are eBay "stickers" attached to the center caps that came with the replica wheels. The OEM center caps didn't quite snap in correctly.

Haha yeah, did the same for my 19" 624M reps. Took the Rims cap and the M emblem from my 400M too.

Hi all. Do you think 437 OEM 19" M4 wheels and tyres would fit my F31 335d Msport Xdrive?
Cheers

What color is this?

I have a mineral grey f30 but the rims on the white bimmer look darker than on Platty's? Are they different rim colors?

The offset values above can vary a few mm and still fit fine.
I ordered the 19 x 8.5 ET 35 and 19 x 10 ET 45. I think it should be a nice flush fit. if not, I guess ill have to drop the car
so if you drop the car will it effectively make the offset more aggressive? thus more flush? or the opposite? Thanks! i m just wondering if +40 offset on rear woth 9.5 is flush i think the +45 is perfect for the 9.5" but then you have 10" wider wheels.

sorry to resurrect this thread a little bit but I was just wondering what quality you all have experienced with these wheels? Im just concerned with their durability for everyday driving. I live in Atlanta and commute about 20-30 miles a day and some parts of the road are a little rougher than others.

Just don't want a wheel to crack on me one day and leave me on the side of the road with rotor damage haha

I was apprehensive at first as well. But after some solid potholes in freezing temperatures, they still look new 7 months later. I would imagine NC roads are similar to Atlanta's?

Replica 437m

I've never purchased replica wheels and agree with your opinion. I just really like the design of the wheel. I was somewhat reserved, but I don't track my car & my daily commute is 9 miles. I thought I might as well give the replicas a try. After purposely finding some decent potholes - so far so good. Keep in mind this is NC - the winters are warm & the roads are respectable.





Ehy Sorry for disturbing You, but I'd like to know which model is your replica 437m by oem concepts.
I am asking because on their website I wasnt' able to find them!
Thanks a lot
