Lol winter is going to suck with these rims haha. Ugly rims inside lol!

Well I found (on craigslist) 4 rims from a guy that he took off his 2007 335xi he said he sold the car because it had an oil leak that would cost over 3000 to fix. He had Blizzak tires that were only used 1 winter so the tires alone are like 200+ a pop and I ended up picking these up 4 rims with good winter tires for $380. 225/45/17's and boy do these rims look very ugly lol but they fit fine and should make my AWD 335xi a great winter vehicle! I'm going to stick with the BMW 219M rims for now as they look much better but winter my car will be ugly. First are the ugly ones 2nd are the Stock rims I have currently on 245/40/R18.

Try plastic dipping them black. Might hide them a bit.

They've got a style 156 thing going on...



Okay maybe that's not the best compliment. Glad you got the tires though!

uggh....winter wheels are the worst. I bought and set of nearly new 195's from a 335 for the summer and use my OE wheels for the winter to keep it stock. With that said, you got a great deal, and it's only a couple months a year.

PS....if you like 195's I'd consider swapping you for the 219's which match my car color.

They aren't tooo bad. I think they slightly resemble style 161 wheels from sport pack equipped 328's and 325's.

My 335xi with sport package came with those same exact wheels. First thing I did when I bought the car was put snow tires on them.

The MSW winter ones or whatever they are called.... or the 219M's that are on right now? No one that was around when I checked the fitment said they look good lol but when compared to the 219M's its hard to judge really.

Order a BMW center cap set and you'll be fine for the summer. I wouldn't sweat it.
