Help on wheels for AW

RyanMv4 · 07-16-2010, 03:30 PM

I just bought a e90 lci 335 in AW and need some suggestions on wheels. I have it narrowed down to the v710 or the VB3 CSL's ... Now my dilemma here is first what color, gloss black powdercoated or their hyper black. Next what size 18 or 19, now I dont plan on getting a drop and really dont want to effect the smooth ride too much so im not sure about the 19's ?? ... Im leaning towards the gloss black 18's in either wheel but want your guys opinion on wheel type size and finish .... Thanks !!

It really comes down to personal choice and from what you're saying it seems like you do not want to sacrifice ride comfort for looks. If that is indeed the case then I would say stick with the 18" setup. It'll provide you with not only a more comfortable ride, but you will also save on both tire costs and have increased performance from having a lighter wheel VS the 19" setup. I'll shoot you over a PM with more details

With the 19's im worried about it looking terrible because im not planning on getting a drop ... Any one have pics of 19's on a e90 with no drop ?

Although this isn't a picture of the E90 LCI sedan I think that you'll get a good idea of how the 19" setup is going to look on your car without a drop:

Hmmm well im guessing now that the VMR's are out of the questions due to them being out of stock so my question is now what do you guys think about matte black ? I cant figure out if i like it or not and should get a glossy type finish ...

ModBargains.com · 07-16-2010, 04:29 PM

The matte black finish does have a slight gloss to it. Here's a picture for you to check out!

19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5 +33 Hyper Silver V710's will be in stock next Thursday!

Pre-orders are open and are highly recommended to guarantee yourself a set once they arrive.

Feel free to shoot me over a PM if you have any further questions.

Go matte 19's, 18's will look small with the black rims. I don't have a drop and am running 19's with sport suspension. Click my sig for a larger picture

Unfortunately this isn't a E90 but it is AW with Hyper Black VB3's. Hopefully it will help you out.

Looks amazing im not sure if that would look too out of place/aggressive on a e90 ... I could be wrong though !
