BBS Evolution-II or BBS FM (Magnesium)
Does anyone know where I can buy either of these wheels? I've seen them before on RoadFly and I know they're expensive (exactly how expensive I don't know). I know they comes in sizes to fit an E46M3 (18") and was wondering if they would fit the G35C-6MT?
here's a picture of one of them but I can not find the FM on the internet anywhere (especially in English).
Can anyone offer any help? TIA...

They look like SF Winnings. I've never seen the others.

omg, they are 1800 a wheel. so 7200 a set. Also you dont' want to use magnesium wheels because they are very soft and can bend easily. On top of that, 7200 is just extreme for a set of wheels. Check out the BBS RGR's if you like that look

I just know that 16 lbs. per wheel is insainly light for an 18" forged 1 piece wheel. I figured I'd look into it.

16lbs a wheels for forged magnesium? Are you sure about that? Volk CE27N weights 16-17lbs each and these are forged aluminum rims that cost around $600 each. The Volk 18" magnesium rims weight around 13-14lbs each, and they cost around $1200 each........ Either way the BBS weight vs value doesn't add up. I would advice more research. Besides, I am sure you can find better ways to improve performance for $7200...... You don't buy that unspring weight X 10 argument, do you?

No, more like x3 to x4 depending on the weight of the car. I've looked for the CE27N's and could not find them on google anywhere. Are you sure about the 19 x 9.5 size only being 14 lbs. each? That's extremely light... I checked out this website and didn't see the CE27N's.
Could you be referring to the Volk CE28N 17x7.5" weigh (6.6kg) which is 14.5 pounds. They are cast wheels and are not forged. I will not consider cast aftermarket wheels after my last horrible experience with this type of wheel. If you add 2 inches to the diameter and 2 inches to the contact patch you're probably adding 4 or 5 more pounds. That's pushing 19-20 pounds for a cast wheel. No thanks...
Also, I would not conseder spending more than ~$2000 on rims alone. The magnesium question was asked because I had no idea what they would run, and still haven't had anyone take me to a link to show me that they actually cost $1800 per wheel. I also did not know that Magnesium was soft. I thought it was just the opposite.
Still learning here... please bear with me.
