Need help with wheels!

BimmrGirl · 07-21-2008, 07:27 PM

Hi guys, i am a newbbie so first of all i would like to say HI

I just traded my Z4 for an E92, 328i, alphine white/black, sprts pkg, prm pkg, navi, and the Mtch kit and am loving my baby bimmer!

so i am looking to change the wheels, and i am looking for a black or two tone black and gunmetal wheels! the problem is wherever i look i do not find the right size for my tires! i am going to keep the stock tires, so i am looking for 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear (pls correct me if i am wrong). Will any other sizes fit my car?

please help by posting few websites that will have those sizes and wont be too expensive. I am looking to spend up to $200 on each! ( i know not much, i am going to add other mods so it all adds up

)

thank you SO very much!!!

I think stock sizes are 18x8 and 18x8.5 not 9.5. I'd say go 18x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 in the rear.235/40/18 and 265/35/18. Check the Breyton Race GTS.

I'm sure plenty of vendors on here can help you out...I don't think your stock rims are 9.5 on the rear, 8.5 maybe. What size tires do you have, that will determine what size rims you can go with.

There are plenty of options in that sizing. I'd recommend the Velocity Motoring CSL Style Wheels which we can do for you in an 18x8.5 ET40 and 18x9.5 ET33 staggered setup. These are the ideal widths and offsets for your vehicle to sit flush with the fender without causing rubbing issues.

We have them available in Super Silver or a Hyperblack if you are looking for a gunmetal look.
