E92 335i

[C.J]

That looks great. Are the original wheels the MV3's (like on my E90) or the 225m's ?

The originals are MV4 (19").

 

[ColinG]

That is the business!!

Id personally refurbish the csl wheels in silver, that would be perfection for me

 

[philmots]

They're the nicer looking wheel IMO... Wanna sell 'em ;-)

 

[Gaz85]

That looks epic, that colour is amazing and suits it so well

 

[Naith]

bet that pulls. makes me laugh that the new 135i's muller new M3s when mpped... I need to see how these go mapped.

 

[hughesclio]

Your doing better than me round town in my mapped 330d I'm getting about 26-27mpg but on a run I get well over 40.
Mines an auto so maybe that isn't helping short journeys.
maybe I should of bought the 335i like I wanted originally :-(
lovely car you have

I don't think they are in top condition, but I'm going to un-box/clean them, and see what they are worth this weekend.

 

[Gouldy]

That's a lovely motor, I don't think the black wheels spoil it but I do think that they would look really good in shadow chrome.

 

[Lawro]

That looks beautiful.. Love these things!

 

[Hixle]

Love that! Great choice mate.

 

[Sir_Dave]

picked this up from Uxbridge yesterday

Could have guessed that from the wheels and black grille lol. Either there or Hounslow/Bradford/Slough ...

Looks lovely though, although i prefer the standard 19" wheels.

Bit racist. Does this car suit me, because I'm black?

 

[Rob]

You're black??

FFS, I thought speiz was black and he's white, I assume you were white and you're black.. it's a confusing time on CS.

Anyway, as you ignored my previous post, I bloody love it. Properly properly love it. Are you considering re-doing the wheels that are on it in a silver of sorts? There's a colour that's being used a lot at the moment called "hyper black" the wheels are basically sprayed chrome then flashed over with black. It gives it a lovely dark silver/chrome look.

LOL. I saw your comment, thanks Rob.

For now I'm leaving the wheels as they are. These are the other alloys I have in the garage. I like both.

Rob, you were surprised when I was ginger too.

You could be purple for all i care lol. It looks stereotypical at the moment, in the way that Rob looks like someone who designs things, & Luke looks like a gay. From memory, Luke isnt gay, but he still wears a silly hat. Robs just trendy iirc.

 

[Hixle]

Well, I'm glad I checked back in here.

 

[Jay_G]

Love that. Lovely colour!!

IV been seriously thinking about one, or a 335D, depending what happens with work.

I think I prefer the saloon though, not really sure why.

 

[Scutch]

So, what sort of price does something like that command?

Looks lovely Chris. Really, really nice.

Depends massively on the spec.

Can pick up an SE/Auto for <£10k.

 

[Topgeartom]

Love pretty much everything about this.

Spec is absolutely bang on, exactly what I would want.

Such a well rounded car.

 

[chris_p]

I can't get these out of my head now ffs!

I was reading up on them anyway and then you started this thread, not happy.
They really do sound like a polished bit of kit.

Who wants to buy a 3.0 z4?

 

[C.J]

Thanks lads

If it was mine I'd put these back on (they look sooo much better - in silver too) and flog your old ones. That will pay for another year or twos warranty for it.

I like the black grills, I've got them on mine and I'm an OEM freak.

If they're not done already changing the halogen bulbs for your AE's to white LED matches the LCI cars.

 

[C.J]

The angel eyes have been changed, got a receipt here for Lux H8 V3, at £180.

Very clear/bright in daylight.

The guy who owned it before me, imo has tastefully modded it and looked after it (the extended warranty was a MUST when I was searching).

Side by side, I like either wheels. I'll change back to the standard ones when I'm bored of the black.

 

[weeshawzy]

That's really nice

 

[Scrooge]

I like it on the badman wheels.

Lovely car.

 

[MatthewR]

It looks a totally different car on the black wheels.

Hard as fook on black
Executive on silver

+1 keep the black wheels imo, or if you have to refurb them silver. the normal wheels don't do nothing for the car.

 

[Heez]

You're black??

?

Love the car. For the first time in a while, keep the wheels black. Looks perfect on them.

 

[Paul.M]

fantastic car, good buy!

Best of luck with it, I wish I had the balls to purchase something like this.

 

[Jon.G]

Looks fantastic!

MV4's are great looking wheels, but yours make the car look much more aggressive, which I like. Love red leather too, never been too sure about if I could live with it though.

 

[C.J]

Cheers

I couldn't make my mind up on getting red leather. Mrs didn't like the thought, but I think it works.

 

[C.J]

First clean yesterday. Still properly love this car.

I've added some white led number plate bulbs, but that's it. Also treated the windows to G1.

 

[len_beach]

Looks well.

I've not read the whole thread so forgive me if you've said. Are those Competition wheels?

LCI rears needed next.

Yeh ZCP competition.

I'd like some LCI rears, but unlikely I'll buy them, unless a well priced set comes up.

 

[len_beach]

Good choice of wheel. I have the same on my M3.

I bought my LCI's from here. Currently showing as around £385 delivered. Genuine BMW but they remove the BMW logos before shipping for some reason. Even come with a genuine packaged BMW loom adaptor.

[philmots]

Is it on standard suspension. It sits lovely.

 

[Mr Plums]

Thats stunning!

I think my next car will be a 135i, great cars with great results from a simple map.

 

[DB.]

Lovely car, ill echo the comments that the wheels in black would look immense in silver though and definitely the best option!

 

[C.J]

All standard.

I need to do a video. It sounds immense both in and outside.
