I sold BMW's for a living for 9 years (now a mortgage specialist), so I am extremely familliar with what I was looking for in my new E90. I ordered the vehicle in Feb 2005 and picked it up on May 9th ... one of the very first ones delivered, in Maryland. All I really wanted (must have's) Sports Package, Steptronic (in case wifey needs to drive it), Electric Rear Shade (baby on board), Power Seats and Xenon Lights (angel eyes). I knew that I was going to change the wheels so no need paying for 18" wheels, plus most of my commute is in rush hour traffic so no need for another 40HP. The premium sound is nice, but the standard is close to the previous H/K in terms of sound. In addition, I don't like the chrome around the windows of the 330i's. All in all, I have absolutely no regrets ... I could not be any happier with my choice!! I love this vehicle ... simply off the meat rack!!

Did you have to ask tirerack to swap out the BMW hub caps? Does the original ASA cap come off? I'm really thinking of getting these wheels. I have the non sport suspension so it might be to much gap. I need to get springs too.

Thanks for the compliments! The 18's look a "little" smaller. The 19's fill up the wheel well nicely, with out the need for lowering springs. I have a can of fix a flat in the trunk and I carry a spare (one of my 17" take offs) for long trips. ... my specs: Front: 19 x 8.5 with 235/35 R19 tires Rear: 19 x 9.5 with 265/30 R19 tires Execution

Great lookling rims. I was looking for something like that, I think I've just found my choice. Could you tell me what tires are those? Would that affect the pressure sensor? Thanks.

Thanks ... the tires I am running with are the BF Goodrich G-Force KDW-2. Upon installation, the tire pressure moniter will show that you have lost tire pressure. All you need to do is reset it and you are good to go! Execution

I now have 14,200+ miles on my ride, with over 11k on these tires and all I can say is that these tires are absolutely lovely! I highly recommend them.
