Style 216..... dey hawt

[D1ESEL]

Well some of you know I purchased a set of 18x8.5 square Style 216's for my ZHP. I ended up going with a 245/35/18 Pilot Super Sport because the car will see a few track days this summer.

Today was the day and I finally put them on. My suspension has been completely refreshed, Z4M control arm bushings, Ground Control complete kit with camber plates, Z4M trailing arm bushings ect. I had an amazing tech I used to work with a BMW dial in the alignment with -2.5 degrees of camber on the front and rear.

Now on to the pictures. :rockon I will do a proper shoot this weekend if the weather is nice

The way she sat on the 135's

Overall I am thrilled with the way this car has been turning out. I can't believe how far it has come!

This was it day one when I first saw and bought it on 12/7/15 when we took it in on trade from the original owner at my dealer

Nice car!

I see that you're in Woodbury- I am from Stillwater originally. What track do you plan to take the ZHP to?

[Sockethead]

those wheels look great!

[cakM3]

I like it! Very clean :thumbsup

Yeah. The car cosmetically was pretty trashed and 100% stock when I first got it but now I have to say it is almost perfect. It was very well maintained for it's whole life though which is most important in my opinion.

Nice! I am planning on going to Road America with it a few times as well as BIR for Proving Grounds.

Those wheels look pretty good. Any idea on the weight?

25lbs for the rear 8.5 wides and 22lbs for the front 8 wides if you go staggered. Honestly I couldn't be more happy with the fitment with rears all the way around.

Not too terrible. Great wheel for that OE+ look.

Yeah! That's exactly what my whole theme is with this car :)

[rkneeshaw]

Wow those look pretty dang good, nice

[ikeupinya]

Dey definitely hawt!!!

[330i Lover]

Very hawt! There's a slight chance I'll be shopping for some non staggered BMW wheels later in the year. On a previous 330i I purchased the style 105's seen below but wanted to get everyone's take on a tasteful set that compliments the ZHP's lines. I'm only interested in non-staggered wheelset since I'll be driving quite a bit more and don't want to plow through tires on my style 135's. Thanks

I personally like any of the bmw performance wheels.

[az3579]

68's or bust for me, personally. If you buy a set that's staggered, I'd be happy to trade my rears for your fronts! I have a staggered set for winter use but I put square sized tires, so the stretch thing in the back is getting tiresome.

I like the 68's as well. If you find someone wanting to sell a set let me know. That would be a win-win for both of us.

The next OEM wheel for the ZHP I will get is going to be the style 264's

They're only 18's!

Looks nice- pm sent with a few questions... Got a set of these for my M-Wagon, but they rubbed with the old tires when I put them on to test-fit them(255/35-18 Michelin PS run flats)
