Pros: look great, strong/light, and made by BBS. Cons:$$$$$

Buying super expensive wheels in the beginning of winter is a bad idea. But.. Yesterday WAS my birthday.

It doesn’t help if I tell you that these would look really good on your car, right?

Because they really will.

I'm a lost cause, I'm scouring the forums for a used set in a non-stance fitment.

Oh my. I do like the wheels I have, but damn these look good.

Alternatively, Alpina wheels would also look great.

You should totally buy yourself an absolutely kick-ass late birthday present.

I love alpina wheels.. You know what I love even more? Alpina B7’s. Saw this beast at the dealer when I was picking up a few bolts.

Kinja'd!!!

I was totally satisfied with my car stock.. I was just gonna get some tints and throw a gloss black grill on. I spent too much time on forums, now the mod bug has hit haha.

I want to badly!! I'd be looking at over $5k for these with tires brand new.. On the bright side, they have resale value as long as I don't destroy them.

So freaking cool!

I've only seen one in the wild.. The rest have been at dealers. These are awesome! Would totally be my purchase if I were shopping for an S-class/7 series/S8. They depreciate pretty nicely too!

If I were you, I’d start saving because those look awesome.

I’d probably go S8, just because it’s bonkers fast without drawing much attention to itself. The B7 is a stunner though.

I’m hoping I can pick up a used set, they seem to go for around $2500, maybe cheaper without tires. That's waaay more reasonable!

The S8 is sweet, the interior is just stunning. Sat in one at an auto show and I was super impressed. I wonder how they drive. Bet they just eat up miles on the highway.

It is more reasonable, but you’ll have to find a set that wasn’t used on a stanced car.

A guy in my town has the BBS F1 in the Titanium gunmetal on his AW E92 and its one of the best car + wheel combos I’ve seen. Wish I had the money for E88s or LMs.

I’ll probably end up going with 219M wheels.

Tinted windows are nice indeed. It’s useful and makes the car look even better imo. Does the grille you have now have the chrome trim on it?

AM3R shamefully returns > Matt Nichelson

Yeah it's chrome. I have the shadowline window trim though, so it would look good if they matched.

Matt Nichelson > AM3R shamefully returns
12/18/2015 at 14:14

I gotcha. Yeah I agree. The chrome just looks a little out of place. I would definitely go all black.

I think the all black would look great with some nicely tinted windows.

I’ve been searching on m3forums and found a few for nice prices.. Only problem is the fitment on some of them are crazy. I don’t need a set of 19x11’s, the widest I’d go in the rear is 10” and even that is pushing it (they do look sooo good though).

LM’s look good on any car, that’s a fact! 219m’s are a great choice. I had a set on my 328i for a little. Awesome wheels, pretty light too.

Allow me to not help.

Also, happy late birthday!

Thanks!! I found a used set for $3100 with almost new tires. It's pricey but it's the best value I'll find, the seller hasn't emailed me back in over a day though! I hope this works out..
