So, I pick up the new car Friday. I'm planning on a new set of wheels either by the Fall, or maybe just wait until winter and do it all at once. Here are a couple that I'm considering. Anyone good with photoshop?

Wheel three (same as one, just different scheme)

Ideas for other wheels? These are 1 piece forged, so not only are they fairly light, they will give me the stance I want.

Only problem I have with them is I don't know their pricing. My buddy owns www.kctrends.com and I can get the hook up on Savini's. Plus they have a huge range of options to customize the wheels.

I like the carbon fiber. Do you know how much they weigh?

Man, I would be scared of EVERYTHING if i had CF on my wheels. I would start crying like a little girl every time I pulled into a parking space with a curb.

Honestly, I like your current wheels better than any of the options you have listed.

This.

I remember seeing this car for sale a while back. Love how the 135i wheels look on it!

+3, but to each his own.

That's what I say. To each their own. And if you want me to make a choice among the three, I would take the last one.

If you're asking what other wheels -- besides the ones in the pictures -- I would go with the stock 135 wheels. Nothing says ZHP more than those wheels.

Of course, style 135 wheels only come in 18s.

You bought ///mshu's car???

Dude, you have style 264 wheels on the car... You can't get any better looking than that!

Spence, there was an interim owner -- Pete. He owned Matt's (mshu) car from December to May.

I vote for the current wheels as well. But, if you must, option three.

I really like the rims in the original pics.

If I have to pick one of the three....I choose #2.

If I had to choose the ones you have posted up, I'd take #2.

I like the style 135s better than either the wheels on there now or the ones you have pictured, but that's me.

Pick what makes you happy and roll with it-- she's your baby now.

You have the support of the family.

You guys are all purists! :) I love the fact you all like the OEM stuff, and I do agree the wheels look great on it now. But putting wheels and certain things on a car make it feel more "mine." As great as ZHP's are, I want it to be "my ZHP." So when you guys see me at a meet, you know who's car it is ;)

I can respect that.

And I am pretty guilty as charged. I'm a purist with the ZHP. Not so much with my other BMWs, but definitely with the ZHP for some reason. I still haven't got my head around it completely yet. Anyhow, yeah, I respect your position.

I see you are in KC, I am too. In fact I live about 2 miles from KC Trends South. I'll keep my eye out for you.

Congrats on the car.

I'm actually friends with Chad. I was out there tonight for Fast Fridays and I'm going to be at the shop tomorrow around 10am to use one of his lifts to change the oil and get under the car for the first time. I'm also going to be discussing wheels with him. Feel free to stop by and say hello.
