I did the 19" 861M with summer perf tires. However, I'm planning on doing aftermarket rims, likely 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 with a more aggressive offset, and swap over the stock tires. I will likely either get 18" rims or use the OEM rims for a winter setup.

This is EXACTLY what I'm thinking of doing...
Vossen HF6's in gun metal grey.
I have the Pearl White color with Black emblems, etc., but I think the gun metal will look really good being as the mirror caps are also in a shade of grey...

Thoughts?

That's awesome! I think it's going to look really great on white. Mine is going to be Portimao Blue, extended shadowline, and I'm going to tint the windows, swap to black emblems and likely get a carbon fiber spoiler for the trunk lid. I wanted dark wheels to match the other dark accents. Similar look to yours, except blue lol.

I was looking at Vossen and VMR mostly. Many other brands with flow formed wheels don't seem to have the right load capacity -Rohana/Savini, HRE Flow formed (HRE forged are fine but don't wanna pay that much) etc. I posted about VMR earlier in the thread, looking specifically at the V710FF in matte graphite, mostly because they're the only VMR's I could guarantee had the right load rating for the car. However, I got confirmation from Brandon at VMR that all of their Flow Formed series (except for one model, I forget which one) are rated for 815kg, so I started looking at the V802 in anthracite metallic. They look quite similar to the HF6 in terms of the style. I like more spokes, even though it's a pain to clean.

Here's the V802 in anthracite metallic on a blue Audi TT, which is what led me to be strongly leaning towards a similar look for my i4:

Those are fantastic looking wheels, actually.
Hmm... now I'm rethinking my choice.

Did you get a quote from him for the setup, by chance?

Sending you a PM with info!

Forza M4 wheels in gloss bronze with same specs as OEM setup with Michelin pilot 4 A/S

 

[toosteeley]

Looks so right! The gold/bronze with SRG is perfect 👍

Same offset as stock?

Yes with the bigger brakes didn't want fitment issues.

 

[toosteeley]

I’m surprised you didn’t go a bit more aggressive than stock. Less offset would have given you MORE brake clearance.

So +35et front and +39et rear?

They look stunning, regardless!

Yes. Correct. I didn't want to go that aggressive and I might be upgrading rear brakes at some point.

 

[toosteeley]

Were you running spacers with your stock wheels?

 

[topdawg37]

Were you running spacers with your stock wheels?

Yes 10mm front 15mm rear

 

[toosteeley]

Are you running spacers with your new wheels as well?

 

[topdawg37]

Are you running spacers with your new wheels as well?

yes same spacers

 

[toosteeley]

Why not just get the wheels built so you don’t need spacers?

Only curious.

Honestly didn't even think about that. Lol

I'm thinking about these as my next summer wheels:

20" M Performance Cross Spoke Forged 794 M Wheels

or these:

20" mbDESIGN GmbH KV4

Or the 797Ms I've mentioned earlier (do think those look good on a white car):

Arrrgh, can't decide Please help me out!

 

[makelja]

They all look good, but load rating again.

 

[Deltaboy]

Hi all.

I'm thinking of getting some 827M style reps in 19" (load rating considered) and I know my i4 needs 8.5Jx19 ET35 front and 9Jx19 ET 42 rear, but the reps I'm looking at come as per the below.

I'm trying to get my head around if the below spec will work? and what will it do to the setup?

FRONT	BACK
RIM SIZE	19 Inch	19 Inch
RIM WIDTH	8.5 Inch	9.5 Inch
PCD	5x112	5x112
OFFSET	+25	+40

 

[toosteeley]

Yes, those will fit.

 

[jmciver]

I second that wheel choice and color…
