20" Rims for my BMW 335i

What's up fellas. I just wanted to share with you guys my new wheels. I waited two months for them while they were being made. Finally had time to put the springs and struts on and I didn't want to put the rims on until I lowered the car. Up next is an alignment.

They're 20" with brushed aluminum centers and chrome lip. The front tires are 245/30/20 and rears are 285/25/20.

Let me know what you guys think.

Re: 20" Rims for my BMW 335i

Thanks. I was thinking about 19's, but after a while they seemed small on the car. I saw other 3 series with 19's and it just didn't sit right with me. Doesn't really look too big in person.

Re: 20" Rims for my BMW 335i

Thanks and yes it is an E92. E92 are the coupes and E90 are the sedans. E93 are the convertibles.

Waiting for my chip tune, so I can really push the twin turbo. Looking to push close to 400 hp...of course I'll have to take off the 20's and put the stock 18's back on.

Haha...I bought my civic back in 2004 and I bought the bimmer about 8 months ago. The bimmer isn't my daily driver. I drive my Dodge truck every day. I bought the 335i because I always wanted a car with a little more power than my civic. I was debating about whether or not to sell the civic, but I kind of got attached to my civic because I put so much work and time into it. However, somebody made me an offer this week and I might sell the civic.

Even though I own a German car now, I will always be a Honda guy at heart.

Enjoy the BMW, the 135I's are growing on me. That is so cool they added the twin turbo's, it must be a torque monster.

Re: 20" Rims for my BMW 335i

Why drive a truck as a daily? Truck is a gas guzzler, but I guess you could be working with it. Car is nice, and I like the rims. The big rims work on that car How's the ride on those?

It's a Dodge Dakota and it's the company car. I had the option of that or a chrysler sebring. I chose the truck. Gas isn't bad because the I don't pay for it.

The ride is ok. You definitely feel all the bumps on the road. The stock tires were even worse because they were run flat tires.

135's are nice. They are even faster than the 335's. Torque is awesome. You get it all across the band. It's definitely a blast to drive. I wanted an M3, but that was out of my budget.

With a chip you can make the 335 just as fast as the M3 as you know, plus looks wise pretty close.

Interesting the new model is going with a single turbo instead of the twin.

Truck comes in handy at times...especially when I need to move stuff.

The M3 is a V8 and is vicious when supercharged. Also I think the M3s look a little more aggressive because it has wider fenders. It's just not the horsepower, the M3 has better suspension and handling than the 335i. Maybe someday I'll own a M3.
