Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums and was looking at buying some new wheels and tires for my 2013 p31.
What company impresses you the best with style and customer service??

Thanks!

Autosport7

Whether your buying for your P31 or a Pinto, the best are always the best...
BBS
HRE
Volk

Now if your asking about vendors, I suggest using Supreme Power Parts, incredible business all around!

It's the only 3 letters you know for wheels!

I have vorsteiner's and they are amazing, extremely light...a bit pricey though, not sure why no one ever recommends them they have held up amazing, customer service was amazing, unlike some other companies around here

Lol Jeff, I'm bias & a pure fanboy.

I actually ordered a set of Volks for the ISF, but it's been 7 months & still no wheels. Great wheels but JDM wheels wait time is crazy.

BBS - Always Win
HRE - Always Win (They d!cked me around) but ehh no love lost.
Rays- Always Win

But just think about how sexy they will be on her when they come in!

I would also suggest adv1's heard good things about them !

Kriston

You sure?

One of my friends back home is running them on his 458 his not complaining

I have always been a proponent of ADV wheels, never really heard any bad stories about them til I came to the Merc forums.
Is it that they have poor c.s. or a poor product (or both) form those who know?

BBS, HRE, Volk/Rays as people have said. For the track, I'd love to have a few sets of Volk TE37s. It all depends on your budget. HRE can make some pretty exotic wheels for you if you want or sell you some flow formed wheels if you have more of a budget.

What about SSR are they good?

Autosport7

Man that is a good one. Hell yeah they are good, don't hear about them too much anymore. Another good one is CCW, but again, don't hear too much about them.
SSR Professor, prob one of my all time fav wheels!

JDoggery

Don't forget to take a look at some of the German tuners. Many of them have styles of wheels that still keep the car looking classy.

OlegKouz

Strasse Forged and ADV1, for sure.

w204_Generic

Yeah those Professor wheels are outstanding. I want to get the Professor SP3s in the near future.

Vorsteiner outsources their wheel production - all of their wheels are made by DPE. While the wheels themselves are of a relatively high quality, they only have a limited selection of styles, sizes and finishes so in that sense they're not a custom, built-to-order company which is why you don't hear much about them. Nothing wrong with the wheels, but the lack of customization options are what is really limiting their market penetration with the modder crowd, just like BBS or Rays.

Autosport7

DPE is another good quality wheel option.

I can get you whatever wheels you want

My favorites are
HRE
ADV.1
MHT
Volk
SSR
Works

All good brands, just give me a price range you'd like to be in and I can get you the best quality wheel within your budget!

With some of the newer companies, there will always been good and bad experiences. I had a great experience when purchasing and building my Rotiforms. But like others have said, there are a few that have been around for a while and have a great reputation throughout the automotive community such as HRE, BBS, Rays (Volk), SSR and Work.

Autosport7

And if you don't mind me adding to your comments here, there have been times where a vendor has tarnished the name of a brand and times when the brand has tarnished the name of a vendor.
When I buy something, I like to do business with companies that have been around for a long time. I agree that the community needs to come together and help these smaller companies grow, and I do, but not with big ticket items, at least not until I see some growth.

There are some larger vendors out there with proven track records, not hard to find them. I suggest doing business with them when buying items of significant value.

VividRacing

You'll also notice that the most respectable wheel companys only work with well established vendors like us
