I had my fair share of issues with these rims. I have a 330d Cabrio, fitted with M225 rims. After buying the car 2 yrs ago, I had tire pressure loss within hours after picking it up. The previous owner did (of course) not say anything about it so I had it fixed at my own expense (a company welded the crack). Few weeks later, same issue occurs again, this time another wheel.

I decided then to purchase 2 new rear wheels. BMW did not want to come in between and refund me. Since the car was secondhand, I had very few arguments to ask for a refund.

However, weeks after having mounted the 2 new (rear) wheels, also they started cracking (increasing my level of frustration).

To my surprise, BMW left me in the dark and said I drove to 'agressively'. I could not believe my ears!

Since then, I had both of them welded 6 (six) times !

Today, it happened again. I am fed up with these wheels and do not even trust the car anymore.

I will throw away these hellish wheels and put 17's.

Such a shame from BMW. My patience has been severely pushed to the limit.
