Favorite style rim on E90?

kdizzz · 03-05-2014, 12:05 PM

What style rims do you like/think look best on E90's?

I know mines probably the most played out style rim but I love VMR/CSL style rims

This style never gets old for me. Can any other style look better on an E90? What's your favorite?

CSL reps but I am biased. I personally favor the Alufelgen CS7 over all other reps for the closest-to OEM silver paint.

For Pre-LCI sedans the "cleanest" look would be CSP reps (VMR, Alufelgens, Avant-Garde, etc). However if you wanted a more "modded" look these probably won't deliver.

Alufelgen CS7 is what I just bought, just mounted and balanced some Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Only a few more weeks before the snow goes away before I can rock them.

Yep that's what I'm running. Time to get new rear tires. Just place an order on ebay with discount tire's $100 off $400 order special. Two rears come out to $520 shipped with no tax. Score!

Alufelgen SF-71's. More aggressive and concave CSL style wheel.

Gizm0 · 03-05-2014, 01:02 PM

I'd have to say style 95

e92_enthusiast_1 · 03-05-2014, 01:16 PM

m359's for 9x IMO

MrPig · 03-05-2014, 01:34 PM

I will forever hold the opinion that BBS RS rims have always been and always will be the best looking rims on any car (within reason, of course).

If we're talking BMW specific rims, then CSL/CSL reps.

I thought you were talking OEM BMW rims, still love the 162s.

DC_Oldboy · 03-05-2014, 02:10 PM

They all look good if you ask me lol.

XM_Rocks · 03-05-2014, 03:17 PM

Those style 95's look amazing however they look like the weigh 30-40lbs a piece.

paddy335 · 03-05-2014, 03:20 PM

CSL/BBS CH-R for sure. Classic look and they suit such a wide variety of BMWs too.

bartles · 03-05-2014, 03:21 PM

Like the Alufelgen but question the integrity of the wheel...Lots of bends but good luck they do look fine

powerhouse_b · 03-05-2014, 03:32 PM

The M look (225 or 194). Then there's 154 (just kidding

)

I have yet to see a better set of OEM wheels than 162s

Sweattdogg · 03-05-2014, 04:17 PM

I vote M225's. No pics to show right now as my car is on it's snows.

dcat151 · 03-05-2014, 04:47 PM

I have to vote for 162s. I think they look great.

sy2767 · 03-05-2014, 04:54 PM
