Upgrades to E89 alloys

Post by Chris22091966 » Wed Sep 19, 2018 10:52 am

Good morning all, I’m hoping to invest in a black E89 shortly but I’m not a fan of the BMW OEM alloys. I’m also debating whether to move from 18 to 19 inch alloys, using non run flats. Any ideas on make / model of alloys that suit the car, equally worth the upgrade to 19 inch?

Thanks for your assistance.

These seem to divide opinion on an E89 but I like them...
