How much would something like this cost?

aupperk24 · 02-26-2018, 06:08 PM

I just bought a 328i with the standard OEM 17" 5 Triple Edge Spoke with the runflat tires.
What would be the cheapest way to get a nicer looking rim on my car? Not looking to spend $2k for an extra set of wheels.
Would I be able to get a set of 17" rims online and have a mechanic transfer TPMS and tire from my old rims to my new one? would it fit on an 18"?

Thanks

no, 17in tires will not fit an 18in wheel. wheels and tires are an expensive game, so if you want something nice and high quality, your probably going to have pay for it unfortunately. generally, cheap≠nice.

Local tire shop will be able to place stock tpms sensors to aftermarket wheels, they did on mine. And of course as stated above, 17" spec tires will never fit on 18" wheels.

so if i get 17" rims, any should fit?
might go with 19" and new tires route too.

if you get 17in wheels, your existing 17in tires will fit assuming you don't get really wide wheels. If you're worried about $, just get 17in wheels so you can reuse your old tires. If you are not worried about spending a little extra cash, just get a whole new wheel and tire setup.
