Good low cost wheels for M235i

I need some wheels for my winter tires.

When I bought the car it was on aftermarket rims that rode perfectly smooth. I also got the original wheels with winter tires on them. The original wheels vibrate horribly over a certain speed. I've had them balanced by a trusted mechanic, and he let me know the wheels are bent.

Is anyone able to let me know who makes the best budget rims for a sports car.

Thanks.

depending on your budget there are plenty of wheel repair shops that can true the wheels for little to no money when you look at the cost of a new wheel. I think I spent $80 to have 2 wheels checked and one straightened a good shop will give you an honest est and. the guy I used didnt even have to take the tire off the wheel to pull out the bend. I have no vibration and they are still running true 2 winters later

I did a pretty in-depth write-up on my budget wheels. They use the same size tires as OEM. Last I checked they come in gloss silver or satin black.

You may also consider going for OEM wheels second hand, to be honest I would choose a factory wheel iso budget aftermarket, but that's just me. You could look around here ( www.bmwstylerims.com ) what oem wheels are available for the M235. On the other hand i think RIAL is a good aftermarket brand and has nice replica wheels as well.
