hello; i'm a poor college kid who finally earned enough money to do a decent mod to my stock SG 325i.
I'm torn right now between getting a H&R racing cup kit or a matte black version of these 19' rims

I like both upgrades equally so there's no "whichever one you like the most you should do" option for me.
I would like to know fellow e90 owners opinion and which one yall would pick.
Thanks guys

i would lower the car first before a new set of wheels but that's just my opinion..

[JayKay335i]

Wheels and springs. But I think those wheels are ugly.

[///mbimmer]

i think you should do the suspension first and than the wheels

[Eric the Ricer]

Those wheels make me think E46 M3. I say go suspension.

[JRe90]

yeah that's the same style as m3 e46 rims. I actually wanted some gold deep dish lemans but they cost twice as much as those replica m3 rims. But it seems people rather see a drop than newer rims; i guess i would too.
Hopefully its not to hard to install the cup kit myself..

Get the suspension first, do NOT buy those wheels. And if you say you are a "poor" college kid, then be smart with your money and dont mod your car...

[JRe90]

i didn't mean literally haha

[Nick3237]

coming from a poor college kid as well....i say do the drop. and stay away from those wheels!

plus whatever wheels you get will look 10x better with a drop

[MassBimmer]

Personally I think you'll be more satisfied with wheels...nothing transforms the look of a car more than a fresh set of rims

[E92-Lighting]

lower before wheels

[SV Concepts III]

I am not a fan of that style on the E90, it belongs on an E46 M3 IMO. I would go with a set of CSLs or V710s.

[EuroTrip]

well, you will eventually get both. Wheels + stock suspension is yuck imo.

Just save up til you have both.

[brinkmann]

Drop it first!

[Gavin@MMW]

get the H&R's man, those wheels are Bunk

[jonerik26]

first thing i did to my car when i got it was lowered it, so you can figure out exactly what my decision for you is, plus this way you can save up for some nicer wheels, that's how i figured it

[JRe90]

well a drop it is then. and yeah i could use that extra time to invest in some more descent wheels.
I originally wanted these 19in rims; I want something you don't see everyday on a e90 and that sticks out from the crowd.

thoughts?
