228 Wheels

XplusYplusZ · 06-15-2014, 10:15 AM

I got my black 228 last week and am really enjoying it, but the wheels are far too skinny. I lose traction a lot - which IS good fun. But i suspect I'm also losing a fair bit of feel. I'm running the 17" y-spoke 380.

Ive been on tirerack and the choice of wheels arent particularly inspiring. I'm wanting to put on some older OEM bmw wheels.

Does anybody know what will fit!? Any good wheel forums?

Powerwheelspro.com is a great source of quality aftermarket wheels for many upscale brands, but I haven't checked on 2 Series size availability. Call Vassili to discuss. I've bought several sets of wheels from them.
