New wheels for my E65...GOING GANGSTER...

[GEUT]

What do you guys think? Too gangster?

I changed the 19" wheels on my E65 to 18", Main reason is because of the hard ride with the RFT's (and off cause also the price of the tyres!!!) I'm planning on putting higher profile tyres on at a later stage, but I'm pretty happy with the M3 wheels on the 7...

I know I'm going the different route than most other guys, most guys up-size their wheel size, and lower profile tyres..., but with this car it is all about the ride comfort for me...

Looks quite nice and I see your point of going 19s to 18s cause 19s are just way too expensive these days

bigger pics pleaaaase:rollsmile:

I think high profile tires look great on the big 7. go massive and show people its all about the ride, be different:thumbs:

 

[GEUT]

Sorry didn't realize I screwed up the pics...let me try again...

Before - Standard 19" 745 rims:

Side by side:

After - E90 M3 rims, with the standard tyres, new tyres to follow...

 

[Psymon69]

haha much better!:ty:

Now fill up those gaps with tyre:rollsmile:

The front looks really weird...

 

[Peter@AEW]

I understand your motivation however the car looks and stands wrong.

Do not mean to offend but the other set looks correct for the car

Nope :sorry:

 

[Hellas]

Should look better with higher profile tyres. The front lacks a bit. When is the 18" due for new rubber?

Naah:thumbdo:

Don't think that the stance is wrong seeing that the e65 18" wheel option fits within 5mm the same as these, maybe because of the angle that I took the picture...

Personally I love the look, so the 19" wheels will just have to find a permanent place in the garage. Luckily the current tyres will need replacing soon, then I'll stick on 235/50 at the front and 255/45 for the back...

No man, doesn't look right IMO, the ride will be harder with the 18s and low profile
