Hamann M Coupe · #1 (**permalink**) 02-16-2002, 10:34 PM

Ok here are the mods for the M Coupe for now.

Ferrari F360 yellow paint
Painted inside headlights yellow as well
Hamann black grill
Hamann side skirt
Hamann eye lid
OMP yellow colour steering wheel
OMP pedals set

Thats it. The Hamann side fender vent and yellow Brembo 4 pot will be in later. Havn't lower the car yet, it will be done with Bilstein PSS coil overs later.

Anyways, i have narrow down to 2 choice.

Either BBS CH or Hartge.

I don't want BBS LM cuz it is a pain in the ass to wash. I don't want PG2 or HM2 either cuz there are quite a few in Vancouver same as ACS also.

So there are 2 choice, BBS CH or Hartge.

What are ur picks?

The car is still in the body shop being repainted. The engine was just lifted back in and they put back the whole interior now. Cuz i told them to paint the engine compartment and the interior as well.

So when the car is out, let me show it to u. But for now, is still in the body shop.

As for the rims, those ones are HRE? They kinda look like Volk Racing LE 37 with the polish lip and the gun metal in the middle.

I have seen the other type of wheels that u mention here. But i think i will stick with BBS CH or Hartge.

I don't really like them, they don't have that style like the BBS and Hartge have.

Really, out of those 2, which one u guys will pick? no other choice.

This to me is a no-brainer... The m coupe can handle a deeper rim in general, so you have to go with a hartge. Unless you dont care for the deepdish look. CH's on an M coupe is a waste to me. The deeper the better on that car. Hartge's are a nice choice, but kinesis and hre make a very nice wheel too. As for ease of cleaning, come on now man, should that really be a consideration? LM's wouild be awesome!

They are anodized 546s. If you want a nasty, custom deep dish, HRE is worth a look as is Kinesis. But if you are dead set on the Hartge or CH's, I would go CH because they weigh a whole hell of a lot less than the hefty Hartge fatties. Either way, I am sure the car will look spectacular.

How heavy does the CH weight and how heavy are the Hartge?

I m thinking, should i concider the ACS at all?

i agree w/ M ryder on this one. you need to get some deep dish rims!

of those 2 choices, i like the CH's better, but classics would have a deeper dish.

I say just get the LM's and spend the extra 20 minutes cleaning them. they are one of the sickest rims out there! maybe u can by some wheelcleaner or something, or get some dustless brake pads.
