New wheels on my E90

Rudz · 07-16-2012, 03:11 PM

Hi,

Got some pics of my new wheels for you, it's from an iphone, so please bear with the quality (lack of it). I had it aligned (Hunter)/balanced at Discount Tyres in Worthing (they are just superb and come highly recommended)

Just whilst I was on the motorway, I got the Red tire warning light ? I pulled over at a filling station and looked at all tyres, they looked fine ? My only guess is that since I switched from 17"s, it triggered this warning as something's changed ? How do I reset this warning ? Do you guys think there might be an actual issue? considering the 225's are known to crack ? I was advised to keep the tyre pressure at 2.8 bar for the front's and 3.1 bar for the rears, all tyres are RFT's ? Does this sound right ? Let me know what you think, thanks for viewing

Car looks sweet!

you need to reset the TPS after chaning tyres/pressure etc its in the manual mate have a quick look!

I was told this on here too :-)

Good colour combo. Warning nothing to worry about as stated. Mine reset itself after warning, but if not as suggested check manual, and enjoy!

Looking good. I had to reset my TPS after moving from 18 to 19s.

FRG · 07-16-2012, 04:04 PM

Car looks great

As the others said just try reseting it, I also had to reset mine when I went from 17 to 18" wheels and tires.

Very nice wheels

Looks good mate

Rudz · 07-17-2012, 05:16 AM

Cheers guys, got the wheels from Nottinghamshire, the seller was awesome, the alloys were in mint condition and went straight onto the car. I know some dont like dark wheels on light coloured cars on account of it looking a bit gothic, but I must say I love the wheels, now for some performance grills and blacklines, that's my mods complete (for now :-))

Like it. Not dissimilar to my old E92

Great wheels, was torn between the CSL's and the MV4's, went for the MV4's in the end as could'nt find good deals on the CSL's on ebay or the forums

creepy...what spacers did you have on your car? wanting to buy some spacers but not sure of the sizes...my hearts saying 20mm on the back and 10 or 15 on the front...need some help

Rudz · 07-19-2012, 02:23 PM

resetting TMS cleared the error, thanks guys for your advice

Business edition · 07-19-2012, 02:36 PM

They look sweet mate and love the matt colour. Suit the car well

1sh@Crystalwhite · 07-19-2012, 03:43 PM

Ahhhh! Im not a big fan of matt gray but it looks awesome on your car!

parapaul · 07-20-2012, 01:37 AM

Looks good - I love dark grey wheels, I just don't have the balls to do it on my car which is dark grey too...

Alen E90 · 07-20-2012, 01:46 AM

If you are in SE London or pass by Brighton anytime, gimme a shout mate, we could swap to see how they'll look on your car, dark grey on dark grey doesn't sound right I feel
