MMR LT1s mounted with new tires

NorthwestN54 · 07-06-2013, 11:13 PM

Finally got around to doing this...I've had the wheels for awhile, but just recently ordered the tires....so expensive, but wow, what a change. I should've done this sooner (PSS 225/245)

NorthwestN54 · 07-06-2013, 11:26 PM

I had to get 5mm spacers on the rears, so got some extended bolts from a local place.....so the front (stock) and back bolts are different colors. Anyone have any opinions on which look better (black - front, or silver - back)? Also, I'm going to replace the center caps with BMW ones once I find the right size ones online (although these look better mounted then they did in the box for some reason.

Stock suspension.....for now. Got a lot planned eventually and that's definitely on the list.

Car looks great. Grills/diffuser, wheels/trim, everything matches nicely.

Very nice! The bright silver color goes well with the silver window trim.

Black wheel bolts are more OEM-looking, but since you have unique wheels I think silver bolts look better.

Rear diffuser looks cool. Tasteful mods.

Check out "TC Klien racing" and get some studs to replace wheel bolts. So much better all around, IMO.

What are the spec of those wheels? Is it 18" or 19"?
