I'm thinking about getting these Rims for my SILVER 323CI off Ebay.

Cost: $695 (buy it now option) + Shipping $125 (in US) = only the wheels, tires are not included!

Does all my sensors going to work with these rims?? What u guys think? Is the price resonable? Does anyone have these on their Bimmer. I'm not really confident buying off ebay so need help from you guys if these rims are going to look good and also quality wise are good or bad.

Or can u guys recommend something similar or better rims that will look good on my car.

Any opinions?

[thumb] Yeah, man, I like those, as a matter of fact I almost bought those for my bimmer. If I'm not mistaken those are hub-centric and come from EuroTech. I bought the Triple Chrome AC Schnitzer III replica wheels from the same company, I love them and they make my ride unique. Good company, you can't go wrong with EuroTech becuse they specialize in hub-centric wheels. Just my two and a half cents worth. Happy Motoring...

I think that the look great, but the chances of problems from pothole and the likes are a sure thing...I have 18's on my 540 and that's about as big as I would want....your going to give up a bunch on the ride if that's important to you

Yes! They are from EuroTech on eBay. How much did ur Triple Chrome AC Schnitzer III replica wheels cost you with the tires? What kinda tires did u go with? Were u also able to have the sensors work with those new rims? I believe they have sensors on the wheels too rite? (the one that notifies you that if you have right air pressure in the tires or not).

How bad is the ride with the 18"? Can it be fixed with the new springs? What Brand? Or maybe something else that u guys can recommend?

[thumb] I'm running 18's, I've hit a couple of potholes because the roads suck in our Nations Capitol and I've lost two wheels. Therefore I've replacd three wheels by calling the folks I bought them from and ordered one at a time on three occasions. Answering the other question I'm running MasterCraft Ultra High Preformance All Season M&S Radials that I purchased locally (Cooper Tires). My wheels cost $675.00 dollars. Lastly, I lowered my bimmer with an Eibach Sports-System Kit which dropped it another inch and a half. Needless to say I avoid potholes and slow down around speed bumps. Just my two and a half cents worth, Happy Motoring...

I am going to the suspension in the next few weeks...I have OEM and this time....the ride from the OEM rims to the 18's was much harder...there is no side wall give to speak of...I talked to my local guy here and I'm putting on Blistiens Heavy Duties with H&R springs lowering it about one inch to an inch and half all the way around...That's not going to make the ride any better just handle better and look allot cooler IMO

If you go to the 19's you are going to have the same ride...I was also told that 19 inch tires are pretty high prices so replacement was an issue for me....I would look at 18's and lowering it like I'm doing
