BMW Performance wheels E90

D_o_S · 03-18-2009, 03:32 PM

Hello all,

which style do you prefer on the E90 from the 2 performance wheels?

1) BMW Style 269

2) BMW Style 313
The five double spoke ones... can't find a pic

Anyhow, I really like the concavity of the 313, but I'm not a big fan of 5 spokes... makes the car look sort of "macho" imo, like Audi A5 styling....

On the other hand, the lack of concavity on the 269 makes them seem like pizza cutters... but they do seem more "classy" on the other hand...

Dunno what to chose... please vote...

i like the 269, but less spokes = easier cleaning!

The Style 313 is actually on the following video:

The Style 269 you will see in the video as well its on the 1 series but those are 18inch.

If your getting it for the E90 Style 313 and 269 are 19inch.

IMO, For some reason, style 313 does not look right on an E90. Looks great on the E92/93 tho. Probably because the coupes are sportier. Maybe I need to see more actual pictures of the e90 with the 313s.

I'd say 269. Although, I really like the 225m wheels over the 2 mentioned.

IMO style 313 will looks good in your car if you put a BBK

Have a look at the 313's on E90 here

e2d · 03-19-2009, 04:42 PM

I dont think the 313's look bad at all. I say it kind of sets the car apart from all the others you see with similar wheels of the 269 style.

D_o_S · 02-21-2010, 06:42 AM

Bump... any more opinions?

wat model 3series is that in the video?

bavarian19 · 02-21-2010, 10:39 AM

313's by far

ibeclueless · 02-21-2010, 12:02 PM

i say 269

DTMrack.com · 02-22-2010, 12:50 PM

My opinion between your poll goes to the 269 since you are looking for performance but not going all out.

Outside of your opinion I would go with CSL wheels.

John_01 · 02-22-2010, 04:18 PM

None of them. They are both typically heavy BMW wheels designed for RFT. Offsets are too conservative too.

Hedges · 02-22-2010, 04:19 PM

269

euromoda84 · 02-22-2010, 04:26 PM

both good looking wheels i prefer the 269's though.

Got_da_booze · 02-22-2010, 04:27 PM

I'd pic the 313s. Oh wait, I already did.

They're great by the way. The reason why I chose them over an aftermarket wheel was due to the strength of the wheel. In the D.C. area, we have a LOT of potholes right now. I'm willing to bet if I would have bought Breytons or Miros, I would have cracked them already. Good luck on your choice.

cb4 · 06-15-2010, 10:13 PM

I ordered the 313s and will post picts as soon as I have them bolted on!

spdy330 · 06-15-2010, 11:22 PM

269's for sure. I can't wait to find a used set one of these days.

jrobwitt05 · 06-17-2010, 10:15 AM

Style 269

ciomas · 06-17-2010, 04:05 PM

the 313 is flawless!

matrix76 · 06-17-2010, 04:08 PM

If I had to vote I would go with the 269's but the 162's, IMHO, are the best.

ZneeK · 06-17-2010, 04:27 PM

Depends on the color of the car: lighter colors, i'd take the 269. Darker, i'd prefer the 313. On E92 i would always prefer the 313s

Got da boose, 313s look tight on your black E90!
