18" or 19" on 06 e90

hey guys,

I'm looking for the perfect set of rims for my e90 but to start off i cant decide if i should stay at 18" rims because i have a new set of run flats or go with 19" just for the bigger rim size. What do you guys think?

suggestions for tight rims with lips and possibly staggered.

If you like linea corse, get their Dyna wheels in 19".

It depends what your roads are like. It's easy for everyone here to say 19's, but they won't be paying for your rim repairs if your driving conditions suck

thanks everybody. i think im going to wait alittle while then go with 19''s.

the dyna wheels look sick and i also checked out the vmr's from one of your cars and think their also tight and for half the price.

Should i get the vmr v710's staggered or all around 19x8.5 with an e90 325i sports package?

If i was to get the 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear vmr v710's, what off set do you recommend?

alright. I'm going to wait and go with 19's. But 19" staggered or or 19x8.5 all around? which is better since you can rotate the 8.5's

I think they come in ET35 front and ET33 rear.
