New alloys

Dr House · 23 Oct 2011 at 18:36

The old ones cracked again so I decided its finally time to ditch the OEM style 230 alloys

new ones, I still don't know if I really like them but lets see how the get on. We probably will not keep the car too much longer anyway.

Thats awesome, not fond of the interior but the rest is awesome and the wheels look fantastic

What engine is it?

its a 335i.

I quite like the interior but its a pain to keep clean.

Old wheels > New wheels

That drip mark off the repeater looks terrible.

I think if I saw the car irl I'd love it though.

Relentless81 · 23 Oct 2011 at 18:54

Yeah its nice I just like the moody look with black leather

So glad its got a proper engine I hate it when a car looks that nice and then it has a van engine, its a bit like getting caught out by a lady boy

I like the old and new wheels

Begbie · 23 Oct 2011 at 18:56

Prefer the old wheels.

I presume that's a wrap? How hard are they keep clean? I presume you can't wax them etc? Is it just a case of washing them?

New wheels look much better, very nice.

Raymond Lin · 23 Oct 2011 at 19:21

I really like that car, except the paint finish, isn't that a pain to keep clean?

[TW]Fox · 23 Oct 2011 at 19:22

Like the 313's, I was going to get a set. Hate the wrap though, way to ruin a nice car

nicRob · 23 Oct 2011 at 19:49

Agreed, just looks wrong...

the old one are probably better but they are made of cheese.

This happened to me once, can't say I was too pleased :eek:

Yep its a wrap, its very easy to keep clean. We take it to a local 5 quid car wash ever week. I would never let them near the paint work but as this is temporary and does not seem to scratch easily I don't mind letting them clean it.

It's down to taste really, I think it looks ok some people love it and others hate it.

Nice wheels! shame about the laquer tho

TechFunctions · 23 Oct 2011 at 21:31

Not really a fan of the paint job, but love the wheels.

rG-tom · 24 Oct 2011 at 00:47

Big improvement, personally I prefer style 225s, not a huge fan of wheels with so little, well, wheel! Lol.

looks a lot newer and sportier though

rG-tom · 24 Oct 2011 at 00:49

Also did you do the dinoc interior? Im tempted to do mine in the silver/graphite dinoc as mine is a black interior so it'd be too dark

Also you really need an m-sport steering wheel man!

New wheels are better than old wheels, although neither really float my boat.

As for the wrap... hmmm.

Raymond Lin · 24 Oct 2011 at 01:35

What did it look like without the wrap?

Hades · 24 Oct 2011 at 02:15

Prefer the second set of wheels. Paintwork looks a bit dull though and could do with a polish.
