Stock wheel diameter?!

[E30QC]

Hey guys, I have DB 325es, with the wheel with the three m stripes on the bottom arm (?). Can someone tell me which wheel this is, maybe post some pics so i can confirm, also, i just wanted to know the stock wheel diameter, and if its' a dramatic change when downsizing it, i don't want to change lanes when i sneeze...

Likely an M-Tech I wheel.

The steering wheel is probably an M-tech 1, I presume.

By the way, you may want to clarify next time if you want steering or rim specifications. I'm still not sure which you want to know about. :)

I'm guessing it's an MTech 1, like mine: (EDIT: I should learn to type quicker)



Mine is missing the tri-color stripes on the lower spoke, but its just a badge, not an integral part of the wheel.

I believe this wheel came in two diameters, 380mm (15" - the vastly more common version) and 365mm (the much rarer version).

A friend of mine has a 350mm Momo Competition wheel on his M3, and while seeing the tops of the tach and speedo can be somewhat problematic, the actual steering action is quite nice.

It is posted in the interior subforum instead of wheels and tires in the suspension forum.

OP did you have a new wheel in mind already?

I know I was joking. I figured this. It was just obvious the other gentleman was confused.

Thanks for pointing that out though.;)

EDIT: Well now I look like a dummy, TDE30 edited out his rim/wheel remark. Go figure.

The small diameter 365mm M-tech 1 wheel is a great upgrade. I love mine.
