Just ordered BBS RG-R Silver

sdiver68 · 11-27-2006, 05:12 PM

18x8, 18x9

Now the wait begins!

PS if anyone wants to photoshop them on a montego blue sedan at least I can have something to look at

Jaws · 11-27-2006, 07:19 PM

Vinobien · 11-27-2006, 09:36 PM

True that, but when you start looking for lightweight forged wheels that have 335i fitments available, good support, and reasonable price the options are kind of limited. Many of the other options I considered were either heavier and cast, or did not fit, or in the case of SSR did not respond to emails, or in the case of Dinan were just way too high $$.

BTW, I have not seen any e90 pics with RG-R Silver...only 1 with RG-R diamond.

soma4u · 11-28-2006, 07:09 AM

how much did you pay...and where from?????????

sdiver68 · 11-28-2006, 09:42 AM

$2741 from BimmersRUs in StL, installed and mounted including TPMS and alignment if required. I think it is a pretty good price considering they take all the risks and are both factory and Dinan authorized service center.

Viral · 11-28-2006, 02:03 PM

did you get 19's?

Vinobien · 11-29-2006, 07:29 PM

good point - silver will look sharp. I had similar BBS wheels before. Only downside is cleaning.

Got that covered as well

The dealer who sold me the wheels is going to notify me as soon as the Hawk or Rotex reduced dust pads become available for the 335. Also, I belong to a 'clean car club' where I get unlimited washes

Carnage · 11-30-2006, 07:28 AM

should look very nice. Great choice!

tpms is for e92 only i believe. e90 have ftm which does ot require the sensor in the rim. awesome choice of wheels.

Sweet. I've got them on my M3 (which is now for sale) and I'm trying to decide whether I'll put some on my new 335i sedan (that I pick up tomorrow). They were the best move I made on the M3 from a "feel" perspective - much lighter than the OEM wheel. Post a pic when you can.

I'd like to see a pic of yours as well.

As soon as they are on, I'll post pics!

But, the rears were special ordered so it may be awhile....

ScBlacksunshine · 12-02-2006, 02:06 PM

BBS RGR is the best

I am bias though. Seriously though, with 18s it'll be really light and you'll feel the difference in terms of accelaration and handling

Is this a pic of 18 or 19s?

That's diamond black right?

mbdurham · 12-09-2006, 09:08 AM

19X8.5 in the front and 19X10 in the back

dawgdog · 12-09-2006, 02:34 PM

Great choice! It certainly is not ordinary. If they came in staggered fitment that would take my 275/19 rear tire I probably would have ordered them. As is I will have my RS-GTs sometime next week.

sdiver68 · 12-09-2006, 05:21 PM

I love RS-GT

, cost-no-object I would have went with those. But I'm a cheapskate
