19 in 230's or miro m6's on e90??? Pictures to compare

What do you guys think would look better on an alpine white 335? I have the 230's coming but I think it might be a bit too conservative but the quality is top notch.The m6's have an awesome offset but im sure the quality isnt quite as good. Any opinions? thanks

The 230s look great, IMO. For performance (lighter weight), the 225 M would be better. But 230s with nonrfts will be an improvement over OEM 162s.

Is the 225 M a 19 in wheel and is it available? thanks for your opinions. btw the 230's are coming with runflats.I dont want my wife to get stranded while the baby is in the car.I have a leatherz spare so im Im wondering if I made the right decision. m6 on alpine white do look good though.

imo the M6(polish with graphite) is the Shiznit on AW, so HOT, don't get me wrong 230's r hot, but the polished M wheels like the M6 and M3's are SUPER HOT

the 230's definately seem a little duller.The wheel is probably much stronger though.thanks for your opinion

I think a lot of the less expensive reps are a little soft and the finish doesnt hold up as well.

I have csl's from **********s.Ive heard a few complaints of strength with csl reps and m6 reps.The stuff is legit, just not as strong as some others.good price.you get what you pay for.I know firsthand.
