19" BMW Performance wheels?

ulrichd · 02-17-2009, 02:27 PM

Did these ever become available? I think the tii concept car had 19" wheels, not 18".

I thought 19" performance wheels were for the 3 series, and the 18" were for the 1 series. The performance catalog makes it seem that way.

A UK forum member with a crimson 135i has the 19"... they look sick! I have the 18" which I think are a better overall fit/look on the 1 though.

Just added the summers to mine as well.

Double Spoke Alloy Wheel Style 269 18's w/
SP Sport 01 DSST RunOnFlat

F - 215/40R18
R - 245/35R18

So far the ride, from what I remember of the 264, less harsh. I'm still breaking them in only about 200 mls on them. No complaints.

I kind of want to paint my wheels... but I'm too cheap to powdercoat

Do you think painting these wheels by hand would be doable?

135iUSN · 04-27-2009, 12:50 PM

ekk - but, that's your call, love them the way they are.

friend powder coated his 264's - and they are wayyy too glossy for my taste, but he likes them. We each find value in our own way.

I have no idea what it costs to do this sort of thing.. but search. . .as a few have had this done... I would say the more detailed the wheel = more expensive

good luck

I LIKED them they way they came... but after about 6 months of use they're scratched to the point I want to repaint. It's about $500 for the whole process here in Portland including sand blasting, powder coat, and a protective gloss finish.

did you run them via the car was and those circle brush would just kill all rims, I won't do the car wash or will I us a hard brush on them ever..

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the 19" performance wheels that BMW is offering for the new Z4 to fit the 1 series? Nobody seems to be able to answer this question.

I was at BMW today waiting to pick up my car and they had a set of 19's in teh show room..

I asked the sales guy if they were for the one, Cause i also only thought they made 18's for the 1er..

After about 5 min talking to the parts guy.. the sales guy came back with the answer of YES

They are 19's and they are for the 1..

Hope that helps you out..

The look Sick i want a pair...

They'll fit, but the offset is not ideal.
