Just purchased a 335i m performance black on black manual xdrive and I really like these rims for winter.

Do you mind telling me where you picked them up?

Is the sizing on the rims Front: 19x8.5" Rear: 19x9.5"?

Did you pair this with 225/40/19 on the front and 255/35/19 on the back? (Pirelli Winter Sottozero Series II Run Flat)

I don't know anything about rims or tires so I want to be sure I've got all the numbers correct before ordering. I really appreciate the help.

Bought it from Simplytire in Toronto - the manufacturer / brand is FAST wheels out of Quebec. The model is PARADOX 162 . There are 18 * 8 square set up on Pirelli Sotozerro RFT 225 45 18. Congrats! on the new ride......

I got mine from tuneworks locally in Calgary; and I decided to go with 18' square set up. I personally don't like run flats (specially for winter) and in this case decided to go with Dunlop winter 4D (mainly because was the only tire I was able to get in less than a week).

I don't know the spec on my case and I don't know where I place my invoice for the rims. If you haven't decided yet I can connect you with my contact and see if they can place an order for you and what options they have. Just PM me.

Thanks for the help.

I ended up going with the 19" m5 style rim 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear

tires: Pirelli Winter Sottozero Series II Run Flat - 225/40/19 on the front and 255/35/19 on the back

Really hope they fit, and that they arrive soon so I can actually get the car from the dealer.

Msport brakes were too big for the 18" AG M310 replicas I ordered...so now they are trying to scrounge up a set of style 269 reps saying they will fit. I'm not crazy about the 269's, but they're not horrible. I thought the M405's would grow on me...but they haven't. Will most likely swap them out in the spring for something more aggressive. There is a ridiculous amount of gizmos on this car...time to spend a few hours with the manual to figure them all out, lol!
Indeed, there is such thing as Cool Gadget Distracted Driving. Had to learn to ignore them lol.

HOWEVER- they saved me from a T Bone collision near a gas station. Was so busy at the gas station trying to pair the car with my iphone, first time, that I waved through another car towards the stop line- it was red light. That driver and his passenger stopped, and when the green light came up, began crossing. BOOOOM! From the left, full traffic speed, a distracted lady driving in her middle lane crossed the intersection, and hit the car in front of me- the one which I had waved earlier to take off first. We could not see her as her right lane traffic - and all stopped cars- blocked the view. She happened to have a clear middle lane and never saw the red light. That would have been me, day 2... Knock wood.

Gadgets saved me. But, also had to learn to not be distracted, Nav, IDrive, HUD. M Lap Timer

As for wheels, it is indeed quite the challenge specking it right. I got the standard recommended winters, and had them panted with a winter resistant black.

Will lower the car wit Dinan springs.
