E90 BMW 335i: I think it's time to get new wheels

Last photo shoot before I change it up for reals!
As for wheels, i'm not too sure what i want yet, budget is 4k. Give me some recommendations! (Keeping the CSL as backup)
I'll try to complete the car a little after 2013.





I know, need to drop it again.




Also "Like" me on Facebook if you have one.

I'd buy suspension before wheels, honestly.

If your budget is 4k I will definately get a good suspension and keep current wheels. Maybe do some power mods but the wheels look good, just needs a drop and the wheels will pop. Imo. GL!

I already have coils, just not installed on the car yet. The only thing i need to get is a fmic + retune, then i will will be done with all things performance wise.

Here's a pic with my old crappy coils. A drop looks good with the wheels i have, but i'm just looking for a change. (thinking of something with a step lip)

I've seen you around a few times and the car looks great IMO. 4K is a lot for wheels but the lead time on most high end wheels is too long for me. HRE is always tops on my list as well. May I suggest the 5" ETS intercooler, it went in easy and works perfectly.

Get a hold of Ted at EVSmotors, and tell him you want some ADV1. Best price I know for some.

Funny, I was in a group buy for the 5" ETS FMIC, but the vendor flaked on us.

I'll pass on the M6 wheels. Not looking for OEM look.
