I had the same wheel/tire combo on my 2007 328xi, but in 17 inch.

Needs a drop! lol, looking good!

Sorry, but I think the car looked better with the OEM wheels. The new wheels are very skinny and the huge fender gap combined with the skinny tires is terrible. Offsets seem completely wrong in the back, need large spacers. Also, because the new wheel spokes do not extend to the far outer edge of the wheel but they are inside a lip, the new wheels look very small, from most angles they look like 17" wheels at best (more like 16").

100% agree, I was thinking the same thing. Get some spacers and coilovers with 1.5 - 2 inches of lowering and it will look 100 times better.
