New rims

I bought the new rims two weeks ago and they ride 100% better than the RFT that came with the car.

Those are SO sweet! Are they replicas? What is the offset? I wanted to get wider rear tires. Where'd you purchase?

M6 Rims

I bought the tire package from Modbargains.com. My sale person was Mike@modbargains.com. I orginally ordered 18.5 and when Mike Emailed me back and advised that the 18's did not come in which cost $1400. Mike offered me 19x8.5 that they had in stock for additional $104. I end up getting the package with 235/35/19 general UHP tires for $1504 delivered ready to mount. The 19's I have are19x8.5 front and rear. They advised that I could go up to 19x9.5 in the rear with no rubbing issues. I live on the east coast and it took about 5 days to arrive.

That is SWEET... I live on the East Coast too. Did you get new censors in that deal? I am definitely wanting that style wheel! Are those the Silver or the Silver/ gunmetal? I am not sure which I want with the black car...

Those wheels look great on the car. The only thing is they make the brake rotors look puny.

^^^^^335i have bigger brake rotors, you should be fine but I would probably paint your calipers black.
