Anyone has a real-life picture of a car with alloy style 268?

Fiery · 08-27-2008, 04:47 PM

I'm about to order a 325i E90 LCI, and I'm considering switching from the default style 282 alloys (205/55R16) to an easier-to-keep-clean style 268 (205/55R16) one. But the sample picture in the catalog is quite poor (at best), so I'm looking for real-life pictures of E90 cars with style 268 alloys fitted. If you have some, please help me out by posting it

I have not found a live or promo picture of the 268 wheels, or indeed many of the new wheel styles. The one in the downloadable catalog is passable to get an idea of how they look:

There's always the BMW DE konfigurator as well if you like.

in all honesty it doesnt really matter...Doesnt matter what you say know, if your even on this forum you will most likely end up switching the wheels out..especially if they are 16s

Thanks! It looks a bit weird... In the configurator style 282 alloys look better IMHO (they're standard for 325i), but I was told they could be tough to clean...

Perhaps switching to 17" would be best, I love style 285, 161 and also 284 looks cool (284 is featured on the official promo shots of E90 LCI).

Thanks a lot! It looks quite bad on all those pictures

How could you find those pics? Any chance to search for style 161 alloys also?
