search for the wheel style you like. find a vendor that sells them and they can assist with what size you need.

Use Google and learn before spending money. As said above, find a trusted vendor to help you out on the specifics.

A wheel that is made specifically for your car will not require the use of a spacer. Depending on the wheel you choose the offset will vary. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

hey jvasquez2428, welcome to the boards.
just look around at other members bimmers, see what you like.
you're a 2006 325, I take it your a sedan (e90).
many members who upgraded have gone 18 or 19's with wheel size.
many members also go staggered setup. like 8.5 front and 9.5 rears.
many members battle with offset. tirerack link of definition http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/...jsp?techid=101

check out tirerack, it's a good site to check out various wheels and tires.
type in your bmw info and browse.
like others have said do your homework and ask around.
you'll find a set of wheels.
just read up - have fun.
