no, they don't, at all.

those wheels look great on the sedan, i'm not a fan of them on the coupe.

not being biased here, i also hate the way the e92 sport wheels look on the sedans.

I agree the stock coupe rims dont look good on the sedan. My biggest disappointment with the rims on the coupe is how plain they are. I still think 162's look better on the coupe and I have seen it in person. 162's do look best on the sedan. Everyone has their own opinion though. Even the LCI wheels whicle better than what is on the coupe are still to plain IMO. The best rims for the coupe besides the 19's are actually the 18's from the 328i sport IMO.

nice, clean car in winter!

my car is dirty as hell.

i also think 162s are ok and not that bad looking and great for winter setup... (I'm biased, because I also have 162 winter setup.. lol :P )

I didnt want to go to crazy in the winter, especially since there are alot of pot holes around. The worst would be to get a rim bent or chipped off one of those things in the winter.

I think for the winter this is a pretty good setup. I also have greater side wall support for when it really comes down... i went for cost and safety when choosing these rims and tires.

These are hankook ipikes... they handle very well in the snow.
