They look like the BMW 216 wheel..?

These wheels were standard fitment on the 130i LE (Limited Edition) in Europe.

Here are some pics of the LE

I like them too. This is the car that sold me on getting them. Take a look...

S54dan · 07-29-2009, 10:12 AM

Great wheel, even has the "Motorsport" logo on it

i wasn't sold on the look with the hatch, but they really look great on that vert! very similar to the bbs ch

jthorst75 · 07-31-2009, 03:42 AM

Thanks, I love them too! They are very close to the CHs but cheaper and they actually fit. Talk to Dan at United BMW for the hook up.

Did you find the front tire tucked in a little bit after the drop? The reason I ask is happened to my car after the drop and now I have to add a spacer to bring it out a bit.

jthorst75 · 07-31-2009, 11:59 AM

Nope, I think it sits just right and looks fine. I know what you mean but i haven't found a reason to get spacers, plus it keeps rocks form hitting the side of my car and there is no way of me ever getting mudguards.

elfhearse · 08-02-2009, 02:04 PM

They go on the must have list....cheapest I've seen is $315 each for front 7.5 x 18 and $345 each for rear 8.5 x 18

Cuz5150 · 08-02-2009, 02:47 PM

Very interested on these wheels..... they look like my BBS CH wheels( i believe poss the best looking wheel) However, the $64K question, whats the weight of these wheels, compare to the stock 135i 5 spoke and the M wheels??

216 7.5 x 18 are 11.8 kg
264 7.5 x 18 are 11.0 kg

Cuz5150 · 08-02-2009, 08:15 PM

Wow!! great site!! Modds....can we make this a sticky!!

So much for the Performance 269 wheel....F 11,98kg, R 11,93kg Vs. the 261 M wheel F:11,80kg R: 11,23kg.
Call me crazy, but no need to drop the extra coin for the 269 wheels

Hi there!

Does anyone know if the BMW performance brakes can fit in those 216?

Thanks in advance!

driftdriven · 08-31-2009, 06:12 PM
