They look great! Are those coils adjustable? They look close to oem height. Do you get any scrapping?

UR25IO · 05-06-2014, 02:10 AM

the car has been jacked up and has not settle down yet when I took the photo. it sits about 1 inch above the wheels no scrubbing

Thanks 7smurfs,they were powder coated. The problem i had was they kept chipping away each time i got my tyres changed so i got sick of it and just bought new wheels instead of repainting it.

About $2250 for those wheels and size, prices will vary on size of with and offset.
I can assure you that you wont get it cheaper anywhere else, Even from Tire Rack.

Walnut · 05-06-2014, 10:12 PM

Looks great! Question - is the front offset 35 or 45? On my 130i, I have 8x8.5ET45. After I rotated the wheels once, I immediately had a banging noise coming from the front. Turns out that rim had a clip-on weight on the inside, which was hitting the shock. The clip-on weight had much less than 10mm protrusion, so ET35 seems impossible!

Also, how has steering weight/effort changed?

Thanks

ET35 should push the wheel further out, away from the strut.

Thanks Everyone.. its been a long time hunting to suit my taste and looks

Took me forever to pull the trigger on these wheels.

These are a perfect fit I reckon i did have my rear guard rolled prior to my new set up.
