330ci with 18"inch M3 rims?

[GarthLL]

I'm just about to purchase new 18" M3 rims. Anybody out there have any experience putting these on a 3-series? I'm pretty excited, but just curious how it feels and rides. Also thinking about putting spacers on to give the car a wider look.

I have the M rims, but mine are 17s. They look great, and ride fine. The key is to get yourself some nice tires to go on those new rims. I wouldn't do the spacers though you already have a nice wide look. I think the spacers would screw up the lines.

yah the rims im getting are coming with the continentals that come on the M3. im hoping it will be nice and look smooth.

should result in great handling ^^

Let us know how the 18s fit. I'm trying to decide now between 17s or 18s for drag wheels.
