640 M Sport wheels
Ok, two questions here (see attached):
1. What model wheels are the ones other than the M6 GC 433s? 2. How did these people get these nice rims on their M Sport?!? 3. Do you think the 433s are styled after 433 but not authentic BMW ? 4. Anyone use Bavarianwheels? Looks like they can provide custom 433-styled wheels for the 640 that work better then the actual M6 version due to the offsets. Any suggestions for or against this company?!? |

Well, i have the same problem..433m OEM just dont fit..however you can install 343m from M5!!
I love 433m,but there are several problems. 1. Fitting issues 2. 433m are cast,not forged! 3.343 are much lighter. 4.replica wheels are even bigger problem..go to x5/x6 section f15..there os thred about guy that has installed 433 replica on hos car..see what happend..thred is called 70 k car.. However those bavaria wheels looks amazing on M sport edition! |

Links to both cars: FYI, I had Taiwan BMW distributor look into M5 343 or 433s on the 640/650 and they said although it could be done, they strongly advise against it. That's why I am looking for quality replicas, Bavarian wheels looks decent but I'm not sure I want to do that. But if I do get replicas, I don't want to waste the extra money getting the 20" 373s first. Thoughts? http://gqjapan.jp/car/review/2014040...ery_id=2#g_top http://autobahn.com.sg/2003/11/11/13...coupe-m-sport/ |

Thnx for link..however i think that only fitting issue with 343m from M5 could be tire size 295..but if you go with original 275 from 373m,i think we will be just fine.

M6 Wheels on 640 no way
no way... in the front may be, in the rear the M6 Wheels are much more wider... about 44 mm outside and 6mm inside
M6 rear 10,5x20 offset 0.74 inch (19mm) "normal" 9x20 offset 1.73 inch (44mm) greets Last edited by 640stgt; 06-03-2014 at 04:01 AM.. |

M5 and M6 343M are different...rear wheel is 20 x 10,5J 19 ET for m6 and 20x 10,5J ET 34.. That stated M5 wheel is 23mm narrow then M6 wheel. So it will fit perfectly!!! |

Yup..you are right..it is 10x20J.
My mistake,i was writting to fast. Look at Arams post and pics NYC crooks page 3 and 4,and you will see that these 23mm is exactly what we need. Yes,i agree with you..it is going to be tight,but perfect..just inside fender. |

In my own experience I have my F10 M5's 343s installed into my wife's 650i F12 without any issues other than 5 mm. spacers in front because of the calipers. BTW she looks awesome!

Deda; I have to learn how to do it. I'll do soon as possible. H&R spacers thought e-bay less than hundred bucks. BTW yours is very classy and sporty at the same time. Congratulations from the other side of the world!

Question & answer. Please let me know how you lowered your F06 and if you had any issues with the active drive and so many electronic aids in the installation. Thanks.
