Of course forged are better, and if you are tracking heavily they are a must, IMO.

However what about a car (namely my 600 hp M3) that will only see a road course once or twice...it will see some hard driving on some S turns when traffic is low in Mexico. These turns push the car to about 85% on good street tires. Car has also seen and will see again 160 mph.

It seems that the forged are the way to go, but the Mod bargain low pressure cast wheels are stunningly beautiful and less than one forth the cost of the Cor precises' I have been eying.

I will post this up in the tire and wheel section, but it will get much more responses (hopefully) here.

 

The COR's:
F1-Precise

 

The Avant Gardes from Mod Bargains:

 

The Avant gardes are really amazing for the price:http://www.modbargains.com/Avant-Gar...els-Porche.htm

 

When did you get a 600 hp BMW. I thought you had a 400 hp BMW?

 

Most OEM wheels are pressure cast, even the factory GT3 wheels. I see no issues in buying the pressure cast wheels. Even my BBS wheels use the same technology

 

thanks legend...here walnut:

 

go oem ZCP 1800 bucks new from tischer and they are BBS

 

with your uses without an accident you should not beable to break either wheel sean.

pic the price/look you want and fire away.

 

 

Thats a very pretty rim but give me some info...will it fit and E46 with big brembos?

It looks like a monoblock, what is the construction and pricing?

 

forgestar is the way to go for your BMW.
Look at the offsets you can get. At 17.6 lbs for an 18.

 

Owned.

I hope to pull up next to your M3 in my 996 on the Mexican highway sometime in the future!

Where in Houston are you? I am in Bellaire (right off 610)

 

What bad107 doesn't know are the results of a race Sean & I had when the GT2 was stock. Dynos do not prove crap.

 

it proves he has a hellafast M3

where are all you modded Houston guys?

I work downtown and of the 10 turbos/astons/maseratis i see everyday, they are always stock and being driven by an old oil geezer!
