Ugly Rims

topogo · 12-03-2005, 10:32 AM

For those with the option to purchase a 323i. Beware of style 154 rims, for they are truly ugly and should be upgraded to at least the 156's. See attached photos for proof.

Hell yea!!

That is ugly!!

They could have thought of something better for sure.

Wait, wait Bangle designed those Rims..

Ouch

shuzmaker · 12-03-2005, 12:15 PM

So that's what they did with the spares!

Atty · 12-03-2005, 12:34 PM

They look like 13's.

They do, but they are 16"

3some · 12-03-2005, 12:47 PM

Still think they would look better on a Toyota or something.

epiphone3 · 12-03-2005, 12:48 PM

The sport package rims on the 323i look much better than both shown in that thread!

3some · 12-03-2005, 12:50 PM

Sport Package is the Bomb!!!

Have it myself incase you dindn't notice.

I Love it to tits, oops sorry bits!

topogo · 12-03-2005, 12:52 PM

They look like 13's because of the curved in spokes with a very large lip. BMW sure knows how to sway you to the next level model.

3some · 12-03-2005, 01:00 PM

Yeah although you drive the ultimate driving machine BMW sure can make U feel like shit after sometimes only 2 months or so with some upgrade that u just must out on.

O well guess that is progress for you.

Still Beemer rocks!!!!

We called those 'rental car rims' in Germany because every rental had either those rims or wheel-covers.

I would call it "TAXI" rims.

Better off than steel rims

topogo · 12-05-2005, 02:46 PM

Oh, I totally agree. It's not the 156's that are ugly but rather the 154's. I just had to get rid of them and picked up take-off 156's.

markE90 · 12-07-2005, 01:43 AM

That 156 looks familiar..hmmm....
