Which Wheels?
Hi All, I have (gone MAD) finally bitten the Bullet and Ordered an M6 GC Comp Pack Car for September delivery (UK).
The wife is not impressed as she thinks it's not as comfortable as the LCI M5. I have added the M-Multi function seats so problem solved. My question is : Do I go CP Wheels or the STD wheels or Forged?. I have the choice with the CP. Which would impact RV?. Thanks for your input.

343 in my opinion since they are forged and lighter (20lb total I think)
but make sure you order the correct part number since there are two different 343 rims for M5 and M6. Rims for M6 are 0.5" wider For M6: ALLOY RIM FORGED 9,5JX20 ET:31 36112283402 ALLOY RIM FORGED 10,5JX20 ET:19 36112283403 you can check here: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...43&hg=36&fg=15 For M5: ALLOY RIM FORGED 9JX20 ET:34 36112283999 ALLOY RIM FORGED 10JX20 ET:34 36112283401 you can check here: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...43&hg=36&fg=15

With the M6 if you intend to upgrade then DEFINITELY go for the 343M! The individual 343M wheels cost way more than the 433M or 601M but are 0 cost option when new.

I like the 343 wheel personally... In my experience, this car is so rare, you don't need wheels to look unique and if you plan on carrying a load or adults in the back seat, you'll likely have rubbing issues if you go any larger on the rear wheels. My stock wheels have rubbed on the inside of the rear fenders a couple times with my kids in the back seat (220 lbs total).

According to second part (rubbing issue) that was my concern too, several members mentioned no issue even with wider wheel or 10mm-20mm spacer.
