Richland Forged is pleased to bring the unveiling and release of the RF-GT4, codenamed “Project Nürburg”, to Bimmerpost!
This exclusive design progresses the consumer based 763M wheel towards the stylings of that used in the GT4 Euro series by the BMW motorsports factory racing program. The design overcomes one of the main shortcomings of the 763M wheel translation, namely the linearity derived from the two-stage peaked spoke apex. This aspect leads to the 763M being visually perceived as “flat” on wheel face in contrast to the GT4 wheel. The spoke curvature of our RF-GT4 offering has been refined and combined with decreased offsets to gain increased concavity profile, with improved visual characteristics and styling accuracy. The fully forged RF-GT4 is being offered in optimal offsets for the F80/F82 platform, with increased widths to support wider tire applications, putting more rubber to the road. The 19” GT4 version compares almost equally to 763M weight while increasing wheel width. The 20” version weighs significantly less than the 666M competition pack wheelset while gaining wheel width.
19x9.5” (ET 26/ ET 22) - Weight 22.2lbs
19x10.5” (ET 35) - Weight 22.8lbs
20x9.5” (ET 26/ ET 22) - Weight 23.9lbs
20x10.5” (ET 35) - Weight 24.9lbs
