Which rims?

I am going to order a 2011 335xi e92 soon with the M-Package...

The stock which is the 193M and then 225M and the 313M.

I am leaning towards the 225M, I always like the 5 spoke or double spoke wheels, but now I'd like to try something different for me at least.

313s for the uniqueness. Plus they look awesome on the E92.

It seems that in the BMW website the 313 is not M but for the LCI e92 M-Package they put an M? I wonder if there will be a difference aside from the "///M" on the rims

313m doesn't exist, it's a BMW Performance style rim so there will be no M emblem. The 193m and 225m are both M-Sport package specific so they both come with the M emblem.

Regardless, I think Style 313 looks the best out of all of them.

Voted 225M, I think they look great for a OEM wheel.

I knnow I'm late, but IF you like the double spoke pattern AND want to be more unique, I'd go for the BMW performance style 269s. Although I really like the 313s also, the 225Ms go really well with the M-tech kit.

313's.

They are BMW Performance wheels.

Probably won't look good on an E92 though.

225m all day long

I vote for the 225m wheels, but I guess I am biased

You gotta see them in person...they definitely turn heads.

Here are a few snaps of what the 225m wheels look like on my E92

Very nice, its unfortunate that I can't get the 225M as an option since BMW doesnt "recommend" it on the XI, but if I order the "I/IS" they would have it.
