2007 328i-Sports Package-17"alloy-Performance tires-Sports suspension

I want new rims but thinking about keeping 17's and lowering car do you think that those wheels with tiers would be to small ...had 20" rims on Magnum RT and just felt liked i waste money Yea i know this is BMW so if i buy BMW rims car would still hold its value , just need some opinions..

If it were me i'd do some polished 18's (not a mesh style). I think it would pretty good on your color car.

Probably won't make too much of a difference in terms of value. You are not going to get your money back either way with rims. Depending on where you live, put some snow tires on the 17's and upgrade to 18's or 19's for the summer. Check out the M3 forum, you can always find someone selling their OEM M rims.

Many will aruge 17s are too small for our cars.

I have the same setup as you - 17s with the sports package and willl be finally moving to 19s this spring once the weather changes.

Many others usually agree with the following:

19s look better on our cars than 18s
19s weigh more than 18s and if looking for performance 18s might be the way to go
17s will be fine - but will look a tad small
18s are usually "big enough" and look good on our cars - as long as the car has some type of lowering to it

Most will probably say get 18s. I would agree.

"value" should not really be considered - putting 17s, 18s, or 19s on our cars will not really alter the value - go trade a car in with tint, rims, intake, exhaust, and 19"s and then take the same exact car but stock and trade it in - you will get the SAME PRICE. (usually )

Ok , so with that said with the 19"s that you get this spring will you still need to lower your car , even though you already have the sports pkg with sports suspension ........
Because with the 18"s you said they may still appear small
