Hi everyone my name is Alexis from Puerto Rico and I have a new white/red interior 2011 128i. I'm new on this forum and the first mood that I want to make to the car is change the wheels because right now I have the factory 17''. I love the CSL wheels but I'm not completely shure on buying those wheels because I think that 19" is to much and could have problems in the dealer with the warranty. Please make recomendations and post pics if you want. Thanks !

First of all, welcome to the forums and congrats on the new car.

As for wheels, if you like the CSL-style wheel, then Breytons would be a good choice. There are more out there, and forgive me for not being too spun up on all the different ones out there, but I know Breyton makes wheels in the specific and unique 1series offset. Our cars have a weird offset, and because of that its not easy to find wheels that fit. 19's are a bit much but a few people have made them work.

I'm not an advocate for Breyton or anything, frankly Im not a fan of the CSL look, but I do know that a lot of people have their wheels and they seem to work.

Welcome to the forums Alexis. Breyton makes a solid wheel but it is a more aggressive design and tends to be heavier than other aftermarket versions. Have you considered 18" CSL wheels? They would be a good compromise between your current 17s and the 19s.

The Breyton GTS-R is a very light wheel made in correct offsets for the 1series.

Welcome!

Thanks! what about the Alufelgen CSL replic on 18" hyper black. My car is white with red interior and I think that could be a good combination.
