Advise needed - Changing Rims for my E90 320i

[leekokshiong]

Need Help, I planning to change my stock Rims to aftermarket 18" Rims from Poh Heng tomorrow. What are the things which i need to look out for? like tyre, offset etc. I prefer quietness over performance and they were recommending me Falken tyres.
Any kind soul out there can help?

Looks really nice. I suppose it is the V710 replicas.

Are you going staggered or non-staggered?

Mostly going non-staggered.. i'm getting the chrome black color.

If u prefer quietness, stick wif 16" rim. I will not sacrifice wet performance over quietness.

Why PH?? humm...

If possible, choose other brand of tires. Falken tires CMI (my point of view) even ST115! skid when wet.. Do take note on the year manufacture for the tires (if u get wat I mean)

From the feedback I observe so far..you wouldnt go wrong with the following tires brands/model:

Goodyear F1 Assy
Michelin PS3
Continental CSC Sportcontact 3

So what should i look out for offset? Will the tyre shop knows what to do?

suggest you do your own research on the internet as to which tyres will suit your needs. lots of online tyre merchants have buyer reviews and there are many websites which post tyre shootout tests conducted by car magazines. you can then get an idea about which are the more highly rated tyres (by buyers or journalists) for your. Tire Rack - Your performance experts for tires and wheels is a big site you can start at. as for pricing, you will really need to check around different tyre shops.

Do you have to put spacers? Btw, nice.

Congrats on yur Breyton GTS !!

Advan Sport is a good set of rubbers! Its less noisy as compare with AD08, on par with RE11. Good grip on dry & wet!
