Thanks for the feedback. I've heard of similar experiences all over the forums. Looks like I'll be shopping for different wheels

I just did the "feeler" for Arc-8's on their site. I ended up putting some 265 PSS on the rear sitting on the factory 8.5 wheels right now. I figure if it doesn't rub on that it won't on the 9.5 wheel. That should just make the sidewall less buldgy and handling a bit better. If the $200 is made on the group buy, I think that's a great deal. Got any pictures of yours with them on it? Did you use the stock lug bolts or do a stud conversion? I like the looks of some blue or black Blox lug nuts but just realized today that that would require a conversion to studs. I think that okay if I can save cash on the group buy.....but not sure if I trust my tire place to get the studs on properly. There's a nice youtube video from Apex and it seems pretty simple.

Shoot me a PM with your number and I can send a few pics of the rims

What setup should I run if I have a 328xi? Same as OP?

I'm looking at the M359s and the Apex Arc-8s

Thanks

Get the Arc-8's. I have them now and they are better quality. I would run 9/9.5 with 235/265 tires. As long as you aren't lowered a lot you will be fine. I'm lowered, but I had the rear fenders rolled a little and I don't rub at all.

So cool, so brilliant! Love your wheels so much.
I like your future plan as well. 19' , droppings are also good options but sometimes too much mods'll kill the classy style of BMWs.

I have the same color E90 and looking for the images of M359 wheels for my plan. This is the perfect sample of 18', which greatly helped me. Thanks mate!

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I just bought a similar car 2007 328I Blue. Do they still sell these wheels? I'm very out of touch with everything.
