Just picked up a set of ‘BMW Performance’ style 269 19’s to try on the E89.
Not sure what’s so ‘Performance’ about them, as they’re not especially light… but they’re fairly rare and look pretty
They are fitted with a brand new set of PS4S’s, and the wheels are in fabulous condition, which made the price too good to ignore. Just a little bit dusty, so need a clean and I’ll ceramic coat them
Might need some spacers to sit how I want them, but if I don’t like them I’ll keep the tires and sell the wheels on. It’s such a nice surprise when something turns out to be exactly as advertised

I have a 2011 35is with Meistercraft exhaust with both down tubes. Looking to downgrade to a factory exhaust. Any interest?

I’ll bear that in mind, ta
Think I might install the strut brace at the weekend… not expecting to be able to tell the difference, but it’s polished aluminium for a bit of under bonnet bling

None of the ones on their website. I’ve asked for everything chrome/silver to be painted sapphire black including the eyebrow. I’m not keen on the square lights, fancy flashing options, etc. It’s a simpler job.
