Who wants to swap wheels - 343's for your 601's?

I am looking for an 'easy' swap of wheels.

I don't want the COmp pack, but I do want the 601's.

My M5 will have approx 1200-1800 miles on it when it gets back from my ED.

Should be here sometime in late August/early September.

I am looking for someone who can make a trip to Northern New Jersey when I go to my dealer (JMK BMW) to pick up my car. We would then have the service dept do the swap.

Depending on how close in condition our wheels/tires are, we can do just a simple swap... Or a swap and a few bucks... Or a swap of just the wheels and we have our tires swapped over. Obviously, ideal situation would be to simply swap complete wheel and tire setups.

Let me know what you think.

Note about

Do you know that nowadays you have to pay as an option for the 343's? Check the weight of each other and you will be glad to keep them instead of de LCI CP.

Thanks bud.

However, I'm not concerned about the additional weight. The M5 will simply be my daily driver. It won't be taken to the track, I won't be looking to squeeze every lb and ounce of performance out of it.
In this case, I simply prefer the looks of the 601's.

Either way, I appreciate the heads up.

I'm with you on this. Many threads seem to show a concern with the fact the Comp wheels are a little heavier and are cast, not forged. I say so what; surely its the design and style that are more important on a 2 tonne limousine! The M5 is a good car but it is far from a race / track car. A few pounds on each corner is not worth worrying about.
