Anyone have the 433m wheels on an M6 coupe?
Hey guys, so Im considering taking off my current wheels, and thinking about putting on the 433 wheels on my coupe. Only thing is- I haven't seen any photos. Anyone have references? Thoughts? Concerns? Lol hope everyone's had a great new year so far

Here you go
They look nice... Just keep in mind since they are cast compare to Forged 343M are about 20lb heavier (the set of 4)

Offsets are different, so be careful...

I have debated this same choice....have to be honest, they don't look good on a coupe. Way too much going on. They really don't look that good on the GC, either, depending on the color of your car.
Also, as mentioned, they are quite heavier. The wheel design is too wide...this is a fast car....fast cars have smaller wheels. Look at Benz AMG's....they have more of a thinner design. I saw a similar design to the 433...on a Dodge Charger, so....

I love my 433M. One of the reasons I fell in love with the GC is because of these wheels.
The 343M looks too thin on the GC. However, I think the M6 coupe looks better with 343M. |

Agree with you. Since 433M looks bigger and GC is bigger than Coupe

I like the look, but I can't see adding unsprung weight just for looks....

I bet you will never ever note a difference between 434 and 433 in regard to the performance. Neither in straight line nor in curves. You won´t even be able to measure a difference since the car is to heavy and has to much power and above all to much torque to feel or measure it. So just put on the wheels you like most.

I recently moved the car to Mexico City. The car simply gets me from my condo- to work- back to my condo- and the occasional gym session I am however ordering a 2016 f13 for my place in Los Angeles- except this time in frozen space gray rather than silverstone- so I may keep performance over aesthetics on that one

If the 433M were available when I purchased my coupe I would have gotten them. They give the car more edge. While I like the 343M, they are a bit tamer. Seeing them on the earlier posted photo of the white coupe looks sharp and confirms my thoughts on the issue. I concur that the weight issue would unlikely be noticeable but the visual enhancement would be. Go for it.
