335i Cabrio - which 19" wheel to choose
I have a 335i Cabrio on order and would like to upgrade the standard 18" wheels to 19". I am thinking about upgrading to either BMW Star Spoke 230 or BMW 225M (the new one for the M Sport version). Moreover, do you think it will be better to upgrade the suspension to M Sport as well given that I will change the wheels to 19". Would the car become too stiff with M Sport suspension and 19" wheels at the same time?
Greatly appreciate your feedback and thoughts. |

Since you're in HK, for the price of the stock 230/225M you could get an awesome set of Volk Racing wheels. They're lighter, stronger, arguably better looking.

yea, bmw wheels are a rip. they are heavy.
get the cheapest wheels u can on the car, sell them, and throw on something aftermarket. get a nice set of BBS LM's or DPE. Youll be very happy, lots more options and better wheels. |

19 inch wheels for 335i
Thanks for the input. What wheel model from Volk Racing would you recommend. Any website I can visit? Also is there is offset/spacing issue to deal with?

The HK members will know better where to get them in your area, look them up here (multiple HK threads), however the wheels fit great, offsets are correct and fit flush. Look up CE28N, Progressiv ME, RE30 to start with. All are forged and come in various finishes to find the look you're looking for.
