I've been looking at MIRO tires and I haven't seen too many people with them...

I love BBS wheels, but I have some Poor Man Alpinas(Style 32's) that I have powdercoated hyper silver, but I was wanting to do something different.


Does anyone know if Miro tires are known for bending or if I should trash that idea.


Don't worry, call me stupid if its a must, I don't want to be that "cheap" guy.

Miro "wheels" have a decent rep.

I think he's just asking about Miro..in general.

I understand that part but you might be able to find some real used BBS' for a decent price




btw, I have a BBS dealer trying to find out the deal with these wheels for me

I have Miros and i can vouch for them very nicely built wheels and look great, I have been more than happy with them
I have the Miro 111

BBS are great I personally love the BBS CH-R :drool

all depends on the look and style you want, let us know that first and we can guide you further

Ginormous price difference there...

well if its the rims, I have had a set of Miros and they were fine. Not forged but good enough if you're not driving over a swiss cheese inspired pot hole ridden road on LOW LOW LOW profile tires for hours upon hours a day.

I'm sorry I wrote tires....I don't know what I was thinking!!!! Sorry for the confusion.

But I'm just speaking Miro in general, because I was looking at these. http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E46-325i-M54_2.5l/Search/On_Sale/ES2190073/

I love the gold, not too bright, not to dim. I think it would look good on my Orient Blue paint.

I just was "ifffy" in case they just bent easily, hard maintenance, fitment.

I was looking at BBS CH-R, don't take this the wrong way, but I'd rather do a lot of maintenance on my car for the price those would cost me, don't get me wrong...they're the most bad wheels on the market...they're extremely cool and unique, and they make your car stand out.

But seeing is my fellow trustworthy members have had them and vouch for them, I might get these as an early xmas gift for myself.

I understand lol, thats why i have miro rims and not BBS CH-Rs lmao trust me a little too expensive for my blood, (too many other things the money could go to lol)

but blue and gold is an awesome combo, good luck

Thanks Reyes!

Are the diameter of the roundels the same diameter as the BMW roundels?

I'm sure you did the replacement didn't you?

the roundels are the same :)
the OEM ones fit, also bought some read and black CF roundels and they fit nice and snug, so the new roundels people sell with the chrome on the edges instead of the yellow will fit as well :)

I am happy with my Miros they are a good brand and people speak highly of them
