IMHO, it depends on whether you will fix up your car or not. If stay with stock, 331 will be fine. 351m will only look good if you have the M-sport package.

What interior color are you having?

juztinl · 08-23-2010, 09:28 PM

oyster/black. yea 331 is nice. 20' is too much for me. i don't want to be too careful on the road.

Man! I should get more discount from them with all these direct and indirect referals!

RC3, which wheels and tyres you ended up getting?

If I stick with 19" 351m will be my top choice.... Except that they can't get it for me here yet and can't wait......

I have the same interior as yours with anthracite trim, black sapphire exterior. To be delivered by Nov

Leaning toward 19" too. Just learned that some BMW rims are made in Hungary, Mexico so undecided whether to get the BMW rims or not. For the same price, probably can get forged wheels made in the US, Japan.
Actually serious considering 19" Breyton race GTP, quoted HK$20,000+ for 4 wheels plus tires. Made in Shanghai but for the amount you paid it is hard to beat.

Still undecided. Have to see when my car gets delivered by Nov.
Most likely will get the Breyton to save the $10k. Hard to get the extra budget approved by my wife

Ladies won't understand why we want to swap the wheels, they think the stock ones are fine but I found them disgusting.

LACSTER · 08-23-2010, 10:45 PM

Love it!

My car is 2 weeks later than yours....

Don't reference me. They will charge you additional so that I can get a cheaper price

Easy. Pay her whatever you spend on your tyres and wheels

ya, that's the one. I haven't been there yet. If you shop there please let me know what kind of selection they have and the prices.

Yes. That's the one. And you might want to check if your dealer has any other referals as well. Always nice to get more than one quote so that you don't get taken advantage of......

Leaning towards 19", Breyton Race GTP is my top choice.
2nd choice would be BMW OEM style 356 20".
Also may consider BMW OEM style 331 19".
Hope I am not considering too many choices.

Thanks.
