Okay need advice on which wheels you like?

BMW 361 20" or 20" Cec c882 for my Alpine White 335i m sport with Coral Red interior

Pics never do black justice

Also important to note that I can get a killer deal on the black 361' s with brand new Rft'S by trading in my 403m's

I had a white loaner with these black wheels. For one the red strip around the rim belongs on a ricer car not a european car. 2nd the rft tires in a 20 were harsh. I have 20s as well and I was actually shocked how nice they handled compared to the rft in the same size. I am also lowered while the loaner was obviously at stock height. Imagine that if you lowered or had the stiffer suspension.

The CEC wheel does nothing for me. Not sure of your budget, but it appears you are looking for a split five spoke. Best looking split 5 is bar none those Velos wheels they have posted on this forum. Second I would choose the Vossens. Deep concaves are the way to go now.

Yeah...I don't disagree with any of your comments lol

I have been really unsure on the 361's in black/red but the deal is so good i figured what the heck.

As for the CEC I am luke warm on those as well....they really aren't my style.......but same thing the dealer has them and they are a really good deal because a customer ordered and then backed out so i was tempted

Ultimately I wouldn't choose either wheel, I would go with a Stance or Vossen concave styled wheel.

I appreciate the input you helped me keep from making a decision I almost certainly would regret.

BTW what tires are you running?

[AutoGuy1314]

I think BMW 361s look pretty good. Love black on white cars. I know this wasn't in one of your choices, but black OZ Ultraleggera HLTs will look great on your car as well. Good luck!

Check out Element Wheels out of Arizona . That is where I got my vossens from and was the best deal I could find. I am running Hankook V12s. 245/35 on the front and 275/30 on the back. Not a bad tire for the money. Actually you can't beat them for the money in my opinion. You can spend more on better tires, but in all honesty we are pushing 240hp, not 400hp. Stance wheels are really nice too. Very similar designs to the Vossens.

Yeah I am familiar with Element, their wheels prices are great but their tire prices are a little steeper......although they bake in the shipping and mounting costs. I keep hearing great things about the Hankook V12's......I ran Michelin Pilot SS on my CC and they were phenomenal but they come at a cost. I have the Pirelli RFT on my stock 403M's and I can't really complain?

Hey hopefully I will be pushing 400 hp if that Dinan stg 2 tune for 335i ever comes out

Yeah I actually like the Ultraleggera HLTs in RED

But I feel like I will get flamed for putting RED wheels on my car lol

You would...

[Gastoys]

None as they all look too heavy, but if I had to pick one I'd go with the 403.

What about BBS

ANything but the black ones. I think the 3rd wheel would look the best on your car. Otherwise with the choices you provided keep the stock M sports.

Who cares if you get flamed? It is your car. You can do whatever you want with it as long as you love it! I hate lime green paint with black racing stripes on a charger, but people still do it. I gotta admit though, it does give the car a personality. I think if you like it you should go for it. You can always swap the rims (as long as you got the cash) to something else if you change your mind.

[AutoGuy1314]

Actually...now that I think about it. I think you need to do something with your 335i if you want to put red rims on it. Bright red on a straight up white car might look a little odd.

But you should still do what you want!

BBS are nice, as a clean freak there is no way I would want to own a set or any mesh style wheel. Especially in a 20 since the mesh is larger and you can see more of the inside wheel. I would be pulling the wheels off every week just to wipe down the inside.

Exactly! I want a wheel that I easily and regularly clean without spending an hour+ do it.
