Cool 18 inch Rims and Tire Sets under $1,400

Hi all!

I currently have a Black 2008 BMW 128i with the Premium Package and Xenon lights (no sports package). I believe that I have stock 17 inch tires.

I am looking to upgrade to 18 inch tires and rims. May anyone suggest rim and tire sets under $1,400 that are pretty good?

Thanks all!

You can go to tirerack.com, input your vehicle. BMW / 2008 / 128i. Then instead of clicking one of the bigger buttons below it, there is a hyperlink reading "Shop for Wheel/Tire Packages" and another one saying "Shop for Winter Wheel/Tire Packages". Click the first one, and all the wheels that fit your 128i will be listed, select a wheel (or you can click "view on vehicle" and see what the rims would look like on your car (even select the color), and then click select once you find something good. Then go ahead and select a set of tires (almost all tires are rated and reviewed by dozens, sometimes hundreds, of customers) and there you go

Rims are generally a personal choice, and there are many options on that site that are cheap and aren't junk rims (but if the price is too good to be true, it probably is). And the tire ratings will most certainly steer you towards a good set of tires so you know you're not getting junk tires either

Thanks bavarian. I took a look at your website and really like the designs on your 18 inch wheels. However, there seems to be only packages for 19 inch rims+wheels.

If I am wrong, please correct me. The reason why I am asking is because my 128i have stock 17 inch tires and I want to upgrade to a package that is 18 inches.
