Looking at your pictures on clearance your looks a lot closer (but will take pictures to compare)

235's was the preferred tyre size allround after testing at the ring - so ill use the existing tyres for the road before changing :-)
How much camber are you running up front? Should be quite something to keep those wheels in. Still amazed by it

I build cars to be use and hopefully look good!!!! The M235i is the start of the project more to follow!

M235i is what it's called by BMW, so why not! I've had enough M cars not to be offended so why get hung up over it, great little car well done BMW.

LOL on stickers.

So your the owner of the SG M3 with IND mirrors and E88s?

What are your wheels specs on the M3 (sorry off topic). Recently put E88s on my M3 and I am curious.

Car looks great. I would take the BBS stickers off of the Apex wheels but that is me.

Looks great, lots of great ideas for the future so thanks for posting. Ignore the poser comments. When BMW calls the car a 235i with an M package then he will have a point. Till then it is an M235i so I don't know how it would make sense to call it anything else.

Great look

This thread is great! I don't like the stock wheels in the m235i and been looking around for ideas. I've learned a great deal, and I think I'm going to go with the Apex!

Those wheels match that car absolutely perfectly. I just wish the rears could fit in 9.5 or wider. The wheels are one of the main reasons I'm waiting to see what is done with the M2, otherwise your car looks like something I would love.
