New Wheels for E90 / E92 in 2008
New optional 19" wheels (style 230) for the 335i Coupe as part of the Sports Package (not available for the 335xi Coupe) - I love these wheels.....
And new standard 16" wheels for the 328i/xi Sedan, Touring (style 268) See this thread for 335xi Options: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71813 Long Hail BMW.

I've never been a big fan of those 230's , but I'm happy they are finally bringing it as an option to the states. I believe it was only offered overseas before.

i think the current style 189 335 sport package rims looks nicer than the 230s they gona put on. altho the 230s are 19s, they look kinda.. cheap
the style 189s hav a more fierce 335 look

I like the 230's--it is nice to have them as a factory option--which, I think, was not possible here in the US prior to now.

I would say the 19's will be optional with the 18's as standard

The 230's are options in Canada. I've see them on the road regularly and they look great, and are in my opinion the best looking choice available from BMW for that car, by far.

My thinking......
Here are my options:
Get the 17" wheels with the all-seasons, replace the all-seasons with snows and get a set of 18" or 19" wheels with performance tires OR Get the 18" wheels with performance tires and buy a set of 16" / 17" wheels with snows.... Which would be cheaper? How much is a decent set of 18 / 19" aftermarket wheels?
