Help me Decide - Style 264 vs ZHP(Style 135) Wheels
http://www.bmwstylewheels.com/bmw/264
http://www.bmwstylewheels.com/bmw/135 Heres the deal I have an08 128i Sport package, and I need to upgrade from the 17's to fit 335 brakes and calipers which I have already purchased. I could get either wheels in good condition, with the 135's costing a little more. I am concerned about the 135's being wider and ruining the suspension geometry - but I do like they won't make me look like a fake 135. Can i get a recommendation? Buying one pair this weekend. |

I wouldn't worry about the 1/2" of added width on the front wheels. If anything, the extra width up front will actually help with handling by increasing the size of the front tire contact patch. Personally, I like the look of the 264's better though, and they'll be much easier to clean!

Between the two wheels in your OP I'd pick the 264s. I always like them as far as OE wheels anyway (came stock on the 135i with the Sport package).

One definite advantage to the 264's is the fact that if you damage one wheel for any reason, there are thousands still out there to replace the damaged one.
So many stories of guys damaging one of their nice aftermarket wheels and cannot find a replacement and now being stuck with 3 wheels. 264's look very nice and easy to clean. |
