Talking New Kid On The Block

Hi all, just got our first BMW, an '05 E90 320i in Sapphire Black, well pleased so far can't believe how smooth she is!

Im really enjoying reading all the posts on the forum and touch wood my engine is not suffering from the faults that other member's are.

Im looking to ditch the RFTs pretty soon and want to get my hands on some genuine BMW 162 style alloys. So if anyone is upgrading then I would be very interested.

I might also consider a straight swap for my 16" alloys if they are in good nick

You'll be more than welcome, new wheels or not... and you wouldn't be the first to bring the nippers along either.

Anybody got a link to a photo of a E90 SE with OEM 193 rims on?

Are M Sport rims ok on an SE or should I stick with original issue ones?

They do look very nice and may be able to get my hands on a set whih would work out cheaper than 162s.

The 193Ms are ace wheels! (slightly biased )

Bad photoshop of them on an E90 SE:
