New E90 Owner!

New 330i owner checking in!

Just purchased a 2006' 330i, CPO, 43k, Monaco blue on beige with burl walnut, premium package.

We added: 35% tint, OEM Alarm (from the States) & Bridgestone LM25 rft winters. The blower motor for the heat/air ducts was replaced due to some ticking noise. We're on the lookout for new 17 or 18 inch wheels.

Nice car. Mine is the same but it's a 325xi/. Had I known about the power difference, I would have opted for the 330xi. Monaco blue on the beige leatherette looks awesome. I have it too and it's pretty classy.

Thanks!

Does anyone on the board know about Beyern Wheels? If so, hows the quality?

Also, the car came with brand new Bridgestone RFT tires for the 17inch stock wheels. Should we buy new 17 inch summers, or somehow sell the 17's and get 18inch wheels and tires?

If your on a lease I strongly suggest that you keep the OEM 17inch wheels and tires. You can also use the 17 inch wheels with winter tires for next year winter.

Just buy a dedicated 18inch or 19in wheel and tires for the summer.

Actually, we have brand new winters on the OEM 17's right now. And we bought the car, didn't lease it.

Thanks for the replies!

We are currently looking for wheels...but are unsure about sizing, etc.

Yes, we do own a 2004 TSX, and a 2005 Odyssey, hence my username.
