Hi folks ,

Looking for a set of style 295 from e89 with good tyres in the uk. These are pretty hard to find ! Would also consider some 224s.

I think they were only on the 35is from new, and most 35is had 326's, so there's probably only 100 or so sets of them in the UK.

That said, I would imagine that a lot of 35is buyers these days might want to change to 19 inch wheels. Probably worth saving an eBay search with notifications.

Good luck!
 
Yeah not a lot of them around unfortunately. Been trawling eBay and everywhere else I can think of.
 
Yes they were fitted to 35i I managed to pick up a set from a forum member 4-5 years ago look great on E89. I did buy just one from E-bay (front) for potential spare but they are rare. Good look on your search.IMG_0944.JPG
 
Yeah they are really nice wheels, typical they are so rare !
I’m looking to change from the 18” split rims on my e85 as they need refurbed and tyres so looking for some other 18” wheels.
I like the z4m wheels but not sure if they fit without rubbing , seems some confusion over that.
For more common wheels I’ll consider Mv3s if I can’t get my first choices.
 
They are lovely wheels, and so easy to clean!

But I'm pretty sure they are NLA, although I managed to get a set for my previous E86 from a forum member with a 35is who had swapped to a set of 230s which look very similar but are 19s - so may they may be an option.

I bought them so I could sell my 108s before they started getting scruffy!

I bought my current 224s from someone breaking an E86 3.0Si so if they fitted that they ought to fit an E85.
 
Yes my 108s need a refurb … I’ve always liked them and they suit the car so well but with the cost of a proper split rim refurb and tyres I was thinking of a change.
I’ll keep my eyes out for 224s as well
