Sorry man, but both of those look terrible IMO. I'm hoping this post was supposed to be a joke...

The OEM 135i 264's look FANTASTIC. NOT many wheels look better. CSL's and a dozen other wheels that are BIG $$$ JACK.
These 2 wheels look BAD IMO.....

Rial and MSW aren't real high quality wheels. Remember weight and durability is very important. Cheap wheels are heavy and bend easy. You get what you pay for. I am a member @Acurazine and have done TONS of wheel research. If you want 18-19" wheels and drive on bad roads sometimes, get HIGH QUALITY wheels, OR buy an extra wheel for back-up because you will bend or destroy one. Many people bought lower quality wheels, then bent one beyond repair and couldn't get a new one due to the wheel no longer being built. Then you have to get ALL new wheels and have 3 useless wheels sitting around. If you want high quality strong wheels look for forged wheels, but the cost BIG $$$.

Looks ARE NOT the only consideration. Save up if you find a great looking quality stronger wheel. It will be much better in the long run.

I am leaving the great looking OEM 18" 264's on.
If I bought another set these would be on a VERY short list. But I have already done the MOD thing on other cars. The 135i sport looks fantastic from the factory IMO.

If I had $$$ falling out of my bunghole, I would get these in 19"

The Fronts looks OK... I'd get them if they were cheap... like $500 per set cheap

Wheels on the front > Wheels on the back. Your chop is terrible and neither belong on a Tii model 1er though
