Aram, thanks for the pics!
I think i am going to go this route. either the 433 or 343s. Is there any chance to put thinner wheels on the back? You know, the same as the front?!? |

Sorry, I meant thinner (less wide) rims, you know, like putting the same width as the front rims on the back? I did notice the M6 GC wheel wells do stick out a little (probably why the rear 433s can be wider, probably need wider wheels to accommodate the power/speed of M6!)

Awesome car with that spoiler, and I love the M6 rims on this car. You're tempting me…
Btw, I got the Continental mobility kit from Tire Rack to be my safety net if I get a flat (I recently replaced my OEM RFT Dunlops with the non-RFT Dunlops).

I just drove to Connecticut from NYC to a friend house to see Pacquiao fight and the tire rub off the lower area 2 times. Its very concerning. I will need to plan ahead before taking passenger. Not sure if M6GC owner are having the same experience. BTW! I have gotten so many compliments with this wheels. |

Funny, that my post didn't get any response, but apparently 433s on the 640/650 GC is a hot topic for some and we are talking about it here. Maybe because M6 owners don't like the idea of it? Haha. Well, M6 badges and double kidney grill are off limits of course, but rims are fair game I say!!! I am deciding between 433 or 343s. The extra wide rear 433s must not fit the rear well, like I said, M6 is a bit wider....can anyone confirm this?
Wait, i forgot people DID reply to my initial thread! Check out "M6 Wheels on 640 GC" looks like it doesn't quite fit...which is why Aram is having issues with the extra weight! |

As for wheel choice, the 433 are for me better looking than 343 wheels and more aggressive. I just see to many people with 343 wheels. I saw a few 3,5,6 series with then and (1)Honda with replica 343 wheels. |

These are the stock M6 GC wheels. You do not need spare tire as long as you have the Mobility system is coming with M6. you need to purchase it. you can find the information in M6 User's manual page 158. I also had the same problem you mentioned about Dunlop tires in my previous 650i and when I contacted the manufacturer they accepted to replace all 4 but since this tire is defective, they replaced by Bridgestone tires! |

Since I have the same size of wheels on my M6, I would say the steering wheel is heavier than 650i but it can be because of different suspension as well. Anyways, with wider wheels you would experience the better traction!
