      AC Schnitzer has specially designed a set of lightweight wheels for performance oriented BMW enthusiasts. These wheels are fully forged, 1 piece, and offer 35% weight savings compared to previous models.

      AC Schnizter collaborated on these wheels with FUCHS. Compared to a BMW performance alloy for the 335, 4.5 kg of weight savings are realized. VS. the Standard M3 rims however, the weight loss is approximately 5 pounds in the rear. This wheel is available for the following models:

      BMW 1 series (E81, E82, E87, E88)
      BMW 3 series (E90, E91, E92, E93, M3 E90, M3 E92, M3 E93)
      BMW 5 series (E60, E61, M5 E60)
      BMW 6 series (E63, E64, M6 E63, M6E64)
      BMW X1 (E84)
      BMW X3 (E83)
      BMW Z4 (E89, E85, E86)

        I like the idea of the weight, but not the style. Must be personal preference.

        I have ACS Type III Racing wheels on my wife's Z4 Roadster.
