WTB/WTT: Style 32 OEM BMW wheels

[A_325i]

i cant tell if these are the same wheels




or these?

Um, then why would 18x8.5" ET40 wheels NOT fit? Run 245/35/18's and you're set.

Have you priced tires in that size lately? God awful expensive.

245/40/18 is about half the price...

[A_325i]

i found them for $225 a peice


17x7.5 15 Spoke SILVER - STYLE 32 $225 each
17x8.5 15 Spoke SILVER REAR - STYLE 32 $220 each

Same wheels. Different sizes. I posted the sizes I want already.

[A_325i]

no read my edited post there the same sizes you need

[Jordan]

Those are new prices. I don't want new wheels. For the cost of the wheels you listed I could buy MUCH nicer real wheels.

alright you didnt specify "used" sorry i was just trying to help

After some browsing I see what you're getting at. KDW's aren't too bad, $184 for a 245/35...

Cheap out now and you'll regret it. You know you want the CSL's.

You are right, I do want the CSL's. But tires are more expensive then the wheels.

I can get 245/40R18 Sumitomo HTR Z II's for $89 each in 245/40R18. Not the greatest tire, but cheap cheap cheap. I can't afford NICE tires right now.

Alot of the guys run this tire at the shop. Wear is good, traction is plenty, and cost is loooow.

Too bad they don't make 245/35R18. The only people that do want a ton for them.

Seems a little weird, must be the extreme reinformance the sidewalls need for the profile.

The HTRZ-IIs really aren't that bad, but that size is fucking huge. No way you can keep the car that low with a tire that big.

I personally don't think Style 32's will look very good. The spokes are too thin/few for your car, which is pretty "thick" with the bodywork.

e9nine had a set of 17x8 and 17x9's for sale in E39 fitment, Not sure if he still does or not.

Those would be ET13. Not going to fit.

I need Z3 fitment...

Jordan, I'll bet 245/35/18s would fit w/ et41 and a tid bit of fender rolling. 245/40s don't even come close to fitting on an M car. The max size you can fit up front is 225/40/18, 245/40/17, and I think you can squeeze 245/35/18 in front.
If you're gonna do it, do it right. Don't go with a 245/40/18

That said, if you don't get 18s (I think you should) and you get staggered style 32s (which I love), go to a smaller diameter front tire.. 235/40 or 225/40 with 245/40 in rear, don't go with 225/45s

Terry finally got some reasonable tires mounted on the CSL wheels. Going to test fit and photograph this weekend, prolly tomorrow.

Nice, looking forward to seeing that
