225m or 230 rims for e92 black msport?

bubbahead · 06-22-2009, 04:18 PM

Any suggestions?

The 5-spoke are the 230's The others come with Msport package.(225m)

la0ninja7816 · 06-22-2009, 04:20 PM

225M

Speeze · 06-22-2009, 04:22 PM

225M -- more unique and the lighter silver looks great with black, imo.

IDreamofBimmers · 06-22-2009, 04:23 PM

225M!!!!

Noc57 · 06-22-2009, 04:31 PM

Both look really good....

....but I'm biased as I have the 230's.

IMO the 230's are more sporty (5-spoke FTW!)

The 225M's are class though.

230's: More sporty, bigger, and much easier to clean!

225M's: Classy, more unique, and better tire options!

You can't really go wrong with either.

KkSc · 06-22-2009, 04:32 PM

230 FTW!

BMWFanatic2008 · 06-22-2009, 04:38 PM

230 all the way!

In what way bigger? They are both 19's

Both look amazing...but i am more of the sporty type and leaning towards the 230's...

Pretty sure the 225M's are 18's last time I checked.....

EDIT: Not that it matters 18' vs. 19'....but still.
Leaning towards 230's eh? Good man.

Actually they are 19's.... the Msport in Canada comes with 19's...they are not available in the US...they have a similar rim but Msport comes 18 only in US

Noc57 · 06-22-2009, 04:55 PM

That explains it.....

Well good luck either way. Both are ballin'

Thanks

I need to make a decision by tomorrow as my car coming in. But I love the look of the 230's ...

Mk23 · 06-22-2009, 09:21 PM

My God those 225M's look amazing. I plan on eventually getting some myself. Very unique thing to have as well.

Noc57 · 06-22-2009, 09:39 PM

More 230 goodness....

First pic is mine, sorry for the quality....I'm no photographer. If I can I'll get around to posting up some more pics of my ride tomorrow. (Just painted and installed my aero lip this weekend!!

)

Second pic is another e90 post member's....Also bad ass.

alanzthaking9 · 06-22-2009, 09:52 PM

225m

StevE90-O · 06-22-2009, 10:24 PM

225M's hands down

6speedGaren · 06-22-2009, 10:25 PM

225m looks classy

Craig@SupremePower · 06-22-2009, 10:31 PM

230's if your going with oem wheels!

cronus · 06-22-2009, 10:54 PM

I'd rather look at the 225s, but I'd rather own the 230s. 225s must be a bitch to clean.

daniel3ooo · 06-23-2009, 01:52 AM

230's

Callsign_Jester · 06-23-2009, 01:58 AM

I voted they both look sexy, but I suppose if I absolutely had to choose one I would go with the 230's as I love big open 5-spokes.

I've got 225Ms which I had painted gunmetal. Looks AWESOME with black and easy to keep clean!
