BMW MV1's ??

Post by bjhornsey » Tue Jan 25, 2011 9:52 pm

Unsure if anyone has heard of this style of alloy wheel, but would really like to see some pics of a z4 with them on if anyone has such a picture. I guess they look rather similar to the old M3 alloys :driving:

Any help would be appreciated :thumbsup:

I think mv1 rims would look cool on the zed. I've never seen em on z4 but interested to see a diff rims to the usual 107 and 108s :poke: :poke:

I do think the MV1s are a little dated looking. But might look good, very rare for the Zed :thumbsup:

I wonder if that's photoshopped or they re reps, cos they look a little small.for 18 inchers.

Personally I think they look cheap and nasty and not suited to the Zed at all :thumbsdown:

I actually prefer the MV1 over the MV2 on an E46 (not sure about them on a Z4 though). There are two E46 330i's in my work car park, one with MV1s and a newer one with MV2s - and personally I think the chunkier style of the MV1's suits the car better.

Might be interesting to see an actual set on the Z4...

i had both on my e46 convertible, it came with MV1's and think they look dated so swapped for mv2's and got bored of the OEM look so got some BBS lm's lol
