The 189's and tire takeoffs are mounted and I am very happy!!!

Joeb427 · 06-20-2009, 09:03 AM

Picked up a set of 18" staggered 189s takeoffs from an '09(I think their really 287's) on Bridgestone Potenza RE050A's off Ebay.
The guy was local delivered the set up to me and I sold my 17" stock wheel takeoffs with 170 miles to him.
I love the look and the handling!
Somehow,I haven't had any TPMS alarm lights yet.

My ugly 17" stock wheels and my new set up.
I do take lousy pics,though.

cotmfk · 06-20-2009, 10:04 AM

The new wheels are definitely an upgrade!

Spydeputy · 06-20-2009, 10:47 AM

those stock wheels........what was BMW thinking.

those 189's sure are pretty.

DASHOCKER · 06-20-2009, 02:03 PM

Gotta love the 189's. They look good on your ride!

MCMLXXXIX · 06-20-2009, 02:08 PM

those stock ones arent that bad
but these 189s, one of the best. they look amazing on all e9x

Joeb427 · 06-20-2009, 03:42 PM

Thanks guys,the Style 189 is one of the nicest wheels BMW offers.

Funny thing is on BMW's site,the '09 Sports Pkg option calls this wheel a Style 287.
My wheel package is off a '09 w/Sports pkg.

Sport Package $2,150
• 18" Light alloy wheels Star-spoke (Style287) with performance tires

09 coupe or sedan?
the style 287 are pretty much the same as 189 except the spokes are a little diff. in their shape
335 sedan gets 287 with sport pkg
335 coupe gets 189 with sport pkg

Bavaria330 · 06-20-2009, 04:06 PM

Those r not the Once that come with the 09 sedan sport, if you look close you will see that lug holes are on The spokes.
The ones you have are much nicer, the rears are more concave and the spokes are ticker. Congrats!

Very interesting.
I wasn't aware that coupe and sedan gets different wheels.
I built a sedan bmw's site.
The Ebay seller delivcered the wheels to me and said they were definitely 189's.

Thanks,I'll have to check out the Sports pkg 287's on sedans to see the difference.

jopa489 · 06-20-2009, 05:01 PM

I love the 189s. It was a close call between those and the 162s for me. Looks great on your car though, awesome choice!

Duhst · 06-20-2009, 05:05 PM

car looks good meng!!

mojo_dan · 06-20-2009, 09:52 PM

Nice upgrade.

189 and 287's are the best looking oem 18's bmw makes. CSL's are up there but I prefer the 5 star look.

Congrats on the nice find...

Thanks,Mojo.
The Ebay seller may be near you.
He's in Westport.
The guy works for BMW in some capacity and gets takeoffs from dealers.A super nice guy.
My cost after giving him my 17" wheel setup with 170 miles was $1165.
The staggered set of Potenza RE050A tires on Tire Rack are over $1400.
The 189 wheel set discounted at Tischers was $1430 or so shipped,TPMS,tires already mounted and balanced.Free delivery because he wanted my wheel set up.He was only 60 miles from me.He even did the take off of my wheels and install of the 189s..
I feel I did well at $1165 and my 17" wheel set up.Never even got my hands dirty.

Stinger · 06-21-2009, 08:13 AM

wow. Those do look good on the E90. I just sold mine from my E93 because I wanted 19" rims. I wondered what they would look like on the sedan. Very nice!

JIASAI · 06-21-2009, 07:21 PM

looks much better

FotiosF90M5 · 06-21-2009, 07:45 PM

They look really good on an alpine white sedan. very nice.

medik13 · 07-12-2009, 02:28 AM

Those are 189's...287's lugs are not inline with the spokes. Looks nice

Addicted2Boost · 07-12-2009, 11:47 AM

looks alot cleaner

craig748 · 11-30-2009, 02:16 PM

Hi, I am trying to do the same trade with my 328xi '07. do you know if the 189s fit the xi? also how can I get in touch with this guy? thanks!
