hi new to this so bear with me,a friend of mine has just bought a 316 coupe on a P plate and is after some new alloys for her car,she's after some chrome multispokes,she has no clue as to the offset/pcd of her new car and has asked me to get as much info as poss for her .the car is black ,so what do you think of her chioce?will multi spokes suit the black car she's just bought,can you recomend a supplier,also what would suit without her having to lower the motor,i said something around the 17 inch mark or would that be too big and make it look like a 4x4,any help at all is greatly recieved,

I'm neither a fan of chromed rims nor of most aftermarket multi spoke designs on the 3 series... that said, the BMW Radial and Alpina styles are fairly classy. I've got 7x17" wearing 235/40 tyres and they went on with no trouble at all and never rub the arches. Visually, the car does not need lowered at all to suit this size. Pix at http://www.newtongrove.demon.co.uk/bmwcc/car328i.html. As for offset and pcd, I never even asked - the wheel/tyre reseller has all that information to hand - just pick a wheel style and ask them... Try http://www.wheelmachine2000.de/index_d.htm to actually 'try' a similar car with various wheels styles. HTH, Duncan |
