Style 160 wheels
Have ordered a 320d SE and will have to finalise the exact spec next Monday but can't decide on which wheels to go for.
I love the look of the 162 design but they're hugely expensive compared to the 158 and 160 and 161 designs. I quite like the Radial spoke 160 but have yet to see them on an E90 in the flesh! Am I the only one who likes them? Does anyone have these wheels? If so are they difficult to keep clean? Dave |

I have them on a jet black E90 with terra interior. Looks absolutely fab but the wheels are a major PITA to keep clean. If I had the choice again, I´d go for the 158´s. Better a clean 158 than a dirty 160. Or I´d go for the 162´s (looks wise), but they´d make the car slower so I won´t...

Go with the radial spoke 160's!! They ARE a pain to keep clean, but IMHO they are the best looking 17" available from the factory!! Because of their design, they actually look bigger than they are, making them look more like 18's!!

I dont mind if the 162s make the car a little slower but they are simply stunning and a must have on a purchase order

Nexus, those rims are sweet. Do you mind telling me how much they cost? Were they factory installed or done at your dealership

Is it just me or is the 160 style wheels not very popular? I have a Graphite edition on order for end of June'06 and this comes standard with 160/SG/Terra/Antrchite lining/Full nav, etc. but I am still thinking of changing the wheels at the dealer as this looks like a lot of maintenance?
