Alloys for E90 325i?

Zen_Driver · 03-12-2018, 08:26 AM

Hi all,

I've just bought an E90 325i (not yet picked up but I'm ridiculously excited to do so tomorrow

). I have to say the wheels it comes with are not the prettiest, I can only describe them as having 5 very wide spokes, plus of course with signs of age to be expected on a 12 year old car.

Can anyone recommend a standard BMW style of alloys I can consider buying and are there any outlets you can recommend who can do them affordably, ie not £500 for a set!

Thanks!

for a e90 shape. has to be the MV3 alloys. hands down the best wheels for a e90 shape.

You think?! It's an entirely subjective view of course but MV3's are common as muck... They're certainly not bad (I have a grey set on mine) but I wouldn't go as far as saying they are the best wheels on an E90.

That said, with them being quite common, a relatively cheap set should be easy to find.

Thanks for the tips guys. Being a BM noob all suggestions gratefully accepted!

I've seen the MV3's, just the ticket. Btw do you know the ones I'm training about, the ones that came with the car?? They're very drab, and that's being generous.

i think they suit the e90 shape very well this is ofcourse if you want the OEM look. sure there are better wheels bmw make however if you want to stay stock, staggered MV3 is a good choice for not so much money
