Which rims?

I'm looking to buy new rims and tires for my E90 330i and I'm having a lot of trouble deciding. So far, I've narrowed it down to the following:

- ASA A1's
- Hartge Classic Reps
- CLS Reps
- BMW ZHP (Style 135) Rims
- M5 Reps

I'm probably going to get 18s, as the 19s may be pushing it a bit on the roads which are all torn up where I live. All of these rims are available in both sizes.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks...

CSL because the classic lines match up well with the e90.

What OEM wheels does your 330i have and are you going to sell them?


Thanks...

It has the 17x8 Type 159 rims. The US standard 330i rims (non ZSP). I was going to keep them, as I'm leasing my car. How much do you think they are worth to sell?

They are brand new. The wheels and tires have 1900 miles on them.

I'm not real sure since most owners are looking for 18" or 19" wheels. Also, I believe you must turn your car in with the same wheels that were on when you took delivery, but I could be wrong.

If you do decide to sell, keep me in mind. I'm looking for either 17" or 18" wheels with low mileage RFT's.

Thanks!

How much would you give me for my rims/tires? They only have 1900 miles on them. Mint condition. Please give me a price not including shipping.

Matt:

I'm not trying to low-ball you, but here is a thread from another owner selling his 159's and I don't know what they eventually sold for. I'm more interested in 18" wheels, but would consider 159's or 161's if the price was very low. Also, I'm assuming shipping would be around $150.

I don't think you're low balling me. The dealer offered me $600 as a trade in, so that would make them approx $750 shipped. I'm not sure if that's a low price or not. I'm not even sure if I want to sell them yet. What do you think?

If your on a lease, I would not sell anything you replace and I wouldn't replace anything I couldn't change back. You might have to pay for it later.

Matt:

I think you first need to decide what you will do with the car once the lease is up. If you’re leaning towards a purchase, then selling them now while they are new and in excellent condition would make sense. The value will continue to drop quickly as you put more miles on the RFT's and also since there is not a big demand for 159's.

Again, if you decide to sell, let me know. We are getting closer to my price range.

Thanks...
