Default New wheels on my wagon
Finally got round to getting a nice set of 17's fitted to my 318Ti. Had toyed with the idea of CSL replicas or M3 wheels, but when I saw these, I just thought they'd look perfect. And boy do they help the look of it!

Yeah, those wheels are cool....Style 32s!!!!!
I wanted those wheels a while back, but nobody was really selling them...
If I were to get a set of rims, those would be one of my choices...

Great pick. I'm keeping my soft spokes. Anyone know if they got a 17 inch wheel like mine? I want them on the rear.

Default My Club Sport must be lowered
I have 16's from the factory on my 318ti Club Sport. Based on your pics, I think the factory also lowered the car. Here's a couple pics. Check out the clearance on the wheel well. Tire size is 225/50-16. Don't mind the hose, my daughter and her friend were on the slip and slide.
Anyway, I love the way this car looks and rides. Ti's are the best.

What kind of rims are those? They do add a nice touch to the look of the ti.

Those are OEM BMW rims...
"Style 32" Radial Spokes...
really cool rims...I was looking for a set a while back but nobody was selling them...
I think they came stock on Z3 3.0 and E39 5 series cars...(too bad they won't fit if they were from a 5er...)

Those would make some nice Alpina Wheels, just swap out the center caps, and of course, just swap the engine to a B3 3.0 Euro just to make it official, no biggie. LOL!

Actually, I did a little research on this. Most of the Alpina cars don't even come with engine or suspension upgrades. All they do is throw on some decals, pinstripping and you have your new Alpina.
