M7
Hyper Silver 19x9
This is what im leaning towards 8)

or

Zenetti Tek
Shadow Chrome 19x8
these look heavy :?

The M7 wheels look very sexy imho 8) 8)

neither are really my choice but at the end of the day it's what your happy with, any chance of a photo chop showing what they look like on your car.

I like the Zentek the best :D ...look like VRX ones (sort off)

id go for the Zenetti Tek, cant say iv realy seen anything like them before!!!!!

Definatly the first one Booya

Your Speedy's look best.

Yeah keep the ones you have :D

19X9 M7s

you're tires will be permanently glued to the ground! hell sexy.

Here are the photochops!!
in the photochop.. definately the M7s... **** the turn me on!!!

I've got to say I first thought the Zenetti Tek but after the photo chop the M7s look the goods.

yeah i agree first i thought the zenetti but it looks like the M7s suit the GBM more...
hmmmmmmm

why!!!

there are 2 cars in alice with 18" Zenetti Tek's!!!!

oh the decisions!!! :x

DEFINATELY the M7's

chrome would look stupid. the alloy finish of the M7's would complement the rear spoiler and lights MUCH better. and makes the car look very european (IMO the magna has a very european shape in the 1st place)

EXACTLY what i was thinking!!!

there kinda like BMW style wheels!! and the 3rd gen is kinda BMWish... haha. we did see a magna turn into a beemer not long ago!!

i like the M7's.

Just a query though.. Are the roads any good out that way? Bumps will sure fux them 19's up pretty quickly.

NT roads are some of the best highways in australia.. on average, the whole NT sturart highway gets replaced every 10 years. so everytime you travel there are sure to be some road works upgrading/widing the roads (Which are already plenty wide enough)

ofcourse just like every state and territory, there are some places you just DONT go...

generally speaking, the NT roads are mighty fine! 8)

yer, i think the M7's are gonna win my vote 8)

Ahh ok.. wasnt to sure.

Yes. M7's go well with the colour of your car. i reckon if you could get them in white they would look even nicer!

yer, they only make em in that silver :x

is it possible to power coat them white??

easy to? expensive?

M7s then powercoat them white once you get sick of the silver color :D

i think im goin against the trend when i say it but personally i reckon the Zenetti's look a hell of a lot beter.
Makes the car look like a sports car rather than a posh, arogant mans beamer.
But then again im not exactly a big beamer fan in case u didnt notice.

im agreeing with pseudomorphous too, (not about not liking beemers :) ) but about the zenetti's being a nicer option.. but as you have said BOO-YA, other guys have the same wheels in your area, so you want to remain different which i understand, maybe you should go with the M7's. you seem to favor them anyway. not my choice as i said - i like the zenetti's. but you have the final decision, so good luck making it !!!! :o

well, i got the pricing for both,

and the M7 is a lot better on the pocket!! :lol:

but yes, i was leaning towards the M7's anyway, altho after starting at the Zenetti's for almost an hour on end straight, i almost changed my mind, but then i glanced at the M7's and i fell inlove again!!

sorry people, im sure it will look better in real life then the photoshop.. or maybe not :oops: thats what im also scared of.. maybe the M7's wont look as good in real life :?

but the pocket favours the M7's over the Tek's.. ill only be using these rims for show not for everday, as the price aftermarket for rubber is something chronic!!!

so at this stage 19's are 19's and thats big, and thats what i want!!! so M7's look like they'll be landing my way in the next month or so 8)

everyone's imput is muchly appreciated!!! seriously!! i donno where i'd be without you guys ;)

ben,

sorry to add to the confusion - im just playing around here at work with your car and i threw these wheels on it. If your after something different - i thought these looked interesting.

anyway - id better do something constructive before i get fired :roll:

nah, too much chromez for me anywayz

what are the m7's worth (not incl. tyres) ??

ahhh!!!

reading some articles from the US.. mainly from the Diamante forums, people use 19x8.5 and dont rub, but they dont suggest anything else, *thinking* that the x9" wide *might* rub.. nooo!!! the M7's only profile in 19" is by 9" wide!!!

now what do i do :cry: :cry: :cry:

ahhh!!!

explain... you mean roll the guards??? what about the internal suspention setup?

Hi BOOya i reckon the M7 Look Good. Gives the car that prestige/sports look. my brother in law has them on his 730 BMW in an 18inch and they look hot.

i'll try and find a pic and ill post it on the forum.

cheers
john

the problem i now face is the fact that the 19" rim i want might NOT fit cos of the 9" wide profile :cry:

but thats the only profile they make :x

Yeah that actually crossed my mind as well cos my brother in laws 730 BMW has got 265/45/18 on the ass and 245/45/18 on the front.

the problem i now face is the fact that the 19" rim i want might NOT fit cos of the 9" wide profile :cry:

but thats the only profile they make :x
Don't you have 17x9's at the moment????

yes, but remember we are going a further 2" higher + rubber!!

aren't you keeping the same overall diameter for the rim + tyre?

Im guessing for 245 wide rubber you will need 30 profile tyres instead of 35's.

I know with my rims 235/35zr19 i have pretty much exactly the same overall diameter to my standard 15" steelies

yeah, but for some reason a lot of people have a hard time understanding that....

how bloody dodgy!!

those M7's are only for BMW's :cry: :cry:

i wsa wrecked when i found that out...

but.... i found some new 19's that i like and since been ordered :badgrin: :badgrin:

nope. not those TeK's either!! totally new!!! and a surprise.. they reckon i should see them around monday or next week definately!!! :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin:

BOOYALICIOUS!!! :!: :!:

Cool BOoya cant wait to see, any hints? chrome, shadow chrome, ????
