Hey guys! I'm looking to get some new wheels for my 325Ci. I plan to keep the stock 16's for winter, but I want to get bigger wheels for normal conditions. I want to get 18's, but some people have expressed concerns about bottoming out and making the ride too harsh. what do you guys think? If I had to get 17's, it wouldn't be a big deal either. Thanks a lot!

Dude, I'm going through the same problem. I plan to also keep the original wheels and dress them with winter tires. I personally like the wide wheel deep dish look, and would like to get 18x10 for the rear and 18x8.5 for the front. However, I was told that you would have to do some body modification to accommodate a wheel that wide. I personally like the 18 or 19 inch ATP Riva or the ATP Flash. BBS are the best, but out of my current budget. You can also pick up any issue of Bimmer magazine. They always have good adds for wheels and tire packages. Hamann, Breyton and Hartge are also some of the ones I'd get if I could afford it. There's a lot to choose from out there. Be sure to shop around for the best deals and get exactly what you want. Good luck to you. And wish me luck because I still have to get a loan approved before I can get my 2001 325i. Oh, if you need a list of cool links to check out I've know lots of them.
