Floor Mats

I want to get a set of all weather floor mats to protect the interior from all the damn salt in chicago. I was interested in getting the 3 series rubber floor mats and go with the sport line ones cuz they will match my sakhir orange, I would assume they would fit, if someone could confirm this or recommend others that would be great. I saw the m performance ones and they look cool but I want rubber ones.

Yes the rubber ones with the red lining fits. I believe they are made for the 4 series. I have them and they're great! If you have a m3 then get the one for 3 series

Here are the ones from my 2012 335i now nicely (almost) perfectly matching my SO interior on my M3.

Sorry if the picture is upside down if you area viewing on an iPhone or iPad, but I took this picture before knowing how to stop this!

looks great! if there is a ton of salt the Weather Tech liners seem to be able to protect more of the center tunnel area it goes further up, just another suggestion. we see a lot of salty interiors and the floors liners from Weather Tech protect more of the carpeting over the oem winter mats.

Thanks, and yes, quite a lot of salt from the roads around here. I may investigate the Weather Tech option, especially since my company makes the material that they are made from!

Hmm, I wonder if we can get a discount

I had the molded Weather Tech mats in my 335. They fit great but I found them to be too slippery. I think they need some sort of heel pad. So I switched to the OEM.
