Like or hate these cheapo rims I picked up off ebay? or 219m look better? PICS INSID

mightbaal · 05-24-2016, 06:14 AM

I know I am pre lci first set are the new replacement rims only reason I bought those is that there are minor bends in my 219M rims second set of pics are my 219M rims which are for sale.

Fuji · 05-24-2016, 06:30 AM

they're nice! Just need to give your car a bit of a drop now

mightbaal · 05-24-2016, 06:37 AM

Its awd I hear they have 2 inches less of suspension travel from the front drive axles. Roads are rough around here and its already a pretty rough ride my womans preggo too and she can barely handle it as it is. How much it cost to drop it tho just curious?

mightbaal · 05-24-2016, 06:39 AM

Btw those rims are $580 free shipping all 4 brand new 18x8.5 front 235/40 and 18x9.5 rear 265/35. 35mm offset running Michelin pilot super sports

I may have to look into something like this for my winter set up.

I like them. My summer setup is 19" with a 275 rear tire so there's no way I can use those for winter. My winter set up consists of some crappy 17" wheels.

What tire sizes are you running?

I picked these reps up last week, getting them installed this week. I was going to go staggered, but being AWD I wanted to keep the same size tires all the way around, so I got the 8.5s all the way around

F30lolz · 05-24-2016, 08:18 AM

Looks good. Now as far as lowering the car, I would do coilovers so you can adjust. Depending on the brand (new/used) you can get a bargain from $500-$700 used up to $950+ new. GL.

bimmette · 05-24-2016, 08:23 AM

Not my taste. Maybe if they were gloss black. Sorry, but you asked.

peterparker · 05-24-2016, 08:53 AM

which wheel is bent?

Memaxndapickel · 05-24-2016, 09:43 AM

I think they look good

not my personal style but I don't think they look bad. I liked your beans in the stock chrome/silver better then the black on your car. Just my .02

335iAP · 05-24-2016, 09:48 AM

I prefer the 219Ms, but they don't look bad. Just not quite as in sync with the e90's style/lines.

I'm thought you couldn't run a staggered setup on XI AWD models?

Well, technically you can, but aren't you gonna mess the differential up or something of that nature?

As long as the O.D. is the same for each wheel, it shouldn't matter.

The staggered are 265/35 18x9.5 and 235/40 18x8.5. When I ran a square setup with the 219M rims they were 245/40. 18x8.5 all the way around 2 of the 219m have small inside bends calls for a .5 ounce counter the shop told me so its not major.

Ubersmooth · 05-24-2016, 03:33 PM

Wanna sell me one of the front 219M's? Been looking for one forever.

JustinGTP · 05-24-2016, 03:34 PM

I have those for winter in 18.

They look good on the E90, they are more angular though. For summer I have M5 reps. Still have the OEM rims too.

All 328 and 335 xdrives with m sport or sport package run a staggered setup from factory, so no, not going to mess up anything. Just keep the tires within a 3% overall diameter with eachother and you're fine. They have a built in tolerance to handle such things.

mightbaal · 05-31-2016, 06:30 AM

Some better pics of the car imo with the new rims... idk if I want to go back to the 219M rims or not yet.

CarFan · 05-31-2016, 07:54 AM

Those really look great. Could you post the online link?

ThatRWD · 05-31-2016, 11:47 AM

They look nice, now you can sell your 219s to someone on the forums
