I agree that 18's would be the best looking. If we do get 18's...does it have to be a staggered setup, like the stock sport pkg. 18's are? We'd be stuck with 4 brand new 17inch Bridgestone RFTs though...

Hmm... That would be a waste of perfectly good tires. Try to sell them? You put winters on the stock rims right? 17s? You can run a regular setup with the 18s, I think they're all the same width. |

Yes, winters are on the stock 17's. The most cost effective way is to buy crappy 17's and put the winters on those. *shrugs* But then that'd be boring.  |

You can run 18"s all the same size, no need for staggered. What do you think your Dad will want? |

Might be a good idea ... running 18" same size will have less understeer / more oversteer than a staggered setup |

Did a winter tire change over yesterday on both cars. The 330i now has Style 162 reps, 17 inch. They look like 18's though.  |

We have had many compliments...most people think they are 18's, although BMW fanatics will probably see the difference right away. |
