e92 m3 wheels on my SI comments ? what do you think havent seen any pics here tell me your thoughts

THEC0RRUPTER · 11-23-2008, 04:13 AM

do you think i need to lower it, it has factory M suspension

ZStig · 11-23-2008, 10:03 AM

from the pictures, looks low. As for the wheels... meh, I don't like the finish but like the design

quickfast · 11-23-2008, 06:59 PM

it looks good at that height, but if youre on roads where you can get away with it, id drop it.

wheels look great

misterawa · 11-24-2008, 07:14 PM

Looks GOOD! I think some OEM wheels look good, especially M wheels! Nice choice.

THEC0RRUPTER · 11-27-2008, 04:11 AM

Just for you people out there, looking to put 19inch wheels i dont recommend it, ride quality and driving experience will be gone, and there car sits taller. I acually took the 19's off and replaced with same style 18inch drives perfect now.

knuklz · 12-02-2008, 11:42 PM

theres much difference between the 19s and 18s in ride quality?

misterawa · 12-03-2008, 12:45 PM

Not to mention the cost for replacing tires and how much more gas it eats...but 19s are sexyyy!

albertoxx · 12-04-2008, 04:41 AM

I don't feel sensible mpg variations between 18 and 19...
I have different tires brand on 18 and 19 so I cannot really tell if there's great grip difference... but I fell HUGE with 19

ianbiz · 12-04-2008, 10:08 AM

I love it. A slight drop would be nice, but not necessary.

Speedtronix714 · 12-04-2008, 03:47 PM

Drop it likes its hot

MVF4Rrider · 12-26-2008, 10:39 AM

I have yet to really like that wheel (I certainly don't hate it), even on the E9X M3. Shape reminds me of a wagon wheel from the westward expansion period in US history.

I prefer 18s just to have a little tire meat visible. Other bennies are less expensive tires/wheels, better ride quality, less chance of kerb damage, and no pimp look.

SDTopless · 12-26-2008, 01:51 PM

they look too huge because there's no lip. i think 18's would look better for that design

3002 tii · 12-26-2008, 03:08 PM

i like it, and surprisingly the wheel gap doesn't look bad, i'd just worry about rubbing. i have oem 18s from the 328 sport and believe it or not my fronts are rubbing :T

unionjack · 12-27-2008, 01:15 PM

Looks better than I thought it'd look.
