Hey I like those 360 Forged!!!

I personally don't think I would change the rims on my 1er unless they came out with a rep 19inch E46 M3 rim.. Like speedfreq has in that pic. Attachment 11479

IMHO they look alot better and different/unique compared to stock - personally I'd adopt a set of 19's and then it'll look fantastic compared to stock :wink: certainly worth the $$$ IMO as they are alot cheaper than the many mega dollar rims available out there :smile:

I think 19s look too big on the 1 series. They just don't seem to fit in the guards at all.

Morr alloys have been doing a bunch of group buys and look fantastic: http://morralloys.com

I think Wayne has ordered a set. Pretty sure they're each 1 or 2 kilos lighter than the stock rims too.

Those are nice :smile:

With regards to size, IMHO 18's look too small/pissy, the 1er is quite bulky side on, 19's suit it and fill up the arches nicely :smile:

I suppose I'm used to 20's as 2 of my cars have 20's and both are smaller than a 1er and look fantastic with that size (eg: in my avatar) :smile:

Each to their own in the end, Kris I really think you can't go wrong with any one of those rims your considering, there arn't many 135i's around in Aust. so whichever you choose, you should achieve a result/look that's nice and unique :smile:

Yes, I have ordered a set. That wheel was going to be my street wheels. But now I am in two minds as I am not sure if I need street wheels anymore. I can't use these as a track wheel because I want a square set up for the track and not a staggered set up. So if anyone is interested let me know. If no one wants it then I will keep it.
