You can try checking at alloy wheels direct online... That'll give you a rough guide as to the asking price. Might help you bargain a bit with local sellers :) Good luck!
 
Saw a set of 351 at Limtayar TTDI last week, display price was RM12,500 rims only, not sure got further discount or not

I really love 351, anyone knows where to get it cheap?
 
Just got my car and immediately went to swap to 19"M 351 rft. Saw another black 520i installing same set. Did not manage to catch the owner. Be good to hear from him on performance of non run flats. My initial response to 19" is rather pleasant for now. Been only on comfort mode so far and seems to be comfy yet firm and noise levels are not as bad as I imagined. Tried the normal setting for a short stint and not sure if it's mind playing tricks as I suddenly find the noise levels a bit more pronounce. Will try the rest at later stage and see how it goes? Don,t think I am prejudice cos it's new car, somehow I find comfort level is much better than my e60 525 running on conti RF 18".
 
Just some feedback...running of forgestars 19's with non run flats....

1. Feels a lot torque-ier
2. Fuel - will know after a few days
3. Comfort - SIGNIFICANT improvement over the 18's with RF.
4. Handling - Much improved

Bro,

Suggestion on Forgestar, make sure you take the car for a hard run with the wheels. Wash it once cool down and have a close inspection for peeling if yours is coloured. Myself and another buddy bought 2 sets for PAGs, one gunmetal glossy and one matt. Both started peeling after 3 weeks of usage after a hard highway run.

Thanks very much for the suggestion. I will do as you have recommended.

Even my 20 inch Cast iron wheels felt lighter than the 18 inch with RFT.
 
Quick update on rft tyres on 19" rims on approx 1k mileage. Very happy with the low noise level and the comfortable ride all round even under sports + mode. It,s definitely more comfortable compared to e60 m sport even on 19". Used to like driving wifeys c250 to enjoy the smooth ride but now find it more bumpy than f10. Not just my thoughts but coming from my wife as well.

Finally managed to see a normal F10 with 351M 19 inch double spoke wheels

looks like 343 instead.
 
nope. that is a 351M wheels.
Pretty sure.
Pic taken while car was moving, so not too clear
 
Not sure what style are these, but they're standard on the 523i my cousin bought last year.

Thats 237 18 Inch wheels.
Very classy rim IMHO.
Had them on mine for 2 weeks while waiting for the 20's!
 
Eggie86, glad you like the pics! Agree with ck318ci that those 237's are real classy. Does not look that good initially but it sort of grows on you.
 
Style 351s are awesome. Have seen it on a few F10s already.

The 237s look similar to the ones on the F02 740i... :biggrin:
 
19' 351m rims

Bro's got it at Lim Tayar TTDI yesterday. Feels heavy but the Diesel Torque subsidize it. RM 12,000 for rims. Front 245 for RM900 each, Rear 275 RM 1100. Total RM 16,000. Good luck on your rim hunting.
