335is owners please look
Posting this thread just out of curiosity,
So the 18" 313 style rims come standard with the car, and there is an option to have the 19" rims. After some searching and such, supposedly the 19" rims were supposed to come with the M decals and BMW Performace lettering on the side. Getting to the point: I have the 19" rims and they came with neither So im wondering if any of you other 335is owners have gotten the "special 19in treatment" or if this is just something i should forget about EDIT: Appreciate the input from all of you guys, and at this point idk what to think of my rims So the m logos were indeed on the 19" wheels, but no the 18's. So i decide to measure the rim to see where i stand... Took a quick iphone pic and what the hell? Either im a dumbass at measuring with the tape or i just got screwed over. If anything where does the rim actually "start and end" ?

I've got the 19" rims WITH the M logos. They came that way from the dealership.

You should get the logo, not the performance lettering though. Do you have the little indented square where the logo is supposed to be stuck on the wheel just outside the center cap?

The 19s do not have the Performance lettering. They're marked with an M instead as noted. If you buy the 313s separately from BMW, they should have the Performance lettering.
The 18s don't have either AFAIK. Check your window sticker. If in doubt ... get a ruler.

I don't have the M logo because I have the 18's and it really pisses me off that the 18's don't come with the logo. Even M sport 18 inch wheels have the logo.

There is another difference between the 18" and 19" 335is wheel too - the 19" is made by BBS and forged. The 18" does not have a BBS logo on the back of it and I believe it's cast. Not forged. How much of a real-world different that makes, I don't know. OEM wheels are quite strong regardless.

I have 18's and I'm pretty sure I have the logo. I'll check tomorrow morning.

I realize it's annoying to not get something that you should have, but really - is it worth the hassle of trying to get them swapped out? Nobody is going to notice. Not even the next buyer.
