Pshopped 135 slvr w/ csl's

sebaflex · 03-11-2008, 10:57 PM

was bored so i did a quick pshop...

added tints, hid, front lip, deleted shark fin roof antenna, csl wheels and a drop.

vivid · 03-11-2008, 11:06 PM

looks good but the wheels are too big and the drop too sever... all in all that combo would look great.

1er Trojan · 03-12-2008, 01:52 AM

Would you like tires with those wheels, sir?

ORIGIN M. · 03-12-2008, 05:29 AM

Are those 20's?

Holy crap.

NJKSC27 · 03-12-2008, 07:12 AM

looks like crap

PrimoM3 · 03-12-2008, 11:43 AM

That's worse than mine (below) and that's saying alot... considering I did it in MS Paint.

Thumbs up for having good taste in wheels though...:drinking:

moff · 03-12-2008, 02:31 PM

Sorry but that looks poor.

The wheels look ridiculous.

Change it to 18" CSL's and show us again!

sebaflex · 03-12-2008, 03:08 PM

i stated it was a quick pshop, meaning that i put almost no effort in to it, srsly it took like 2minutes to do that and post it.

Anyways.. now you get an *idea* of what it can look like with csl's and a drop

larryn · 03-12-2008, 03:09 PM

My sig too!

PrimoM3 · 03-12-2008, 05:28 PM

Will the OE CSL's fit the 135i or are we stuck with reps? I was under the impression the offset was way off.

SpeedFrq · 03-12-2008, 09:02 PM

dude seriously, step away from the photoshop...

Offset is way off. Reps would be the only option for CSLs.

kobezklutch · 03-13-2008, 01:16 AM

Endgame · 03-13-2008, 08:24 AM

do you happen to know the offset of the stock 135 wheels? havent really looked into it..

thanks

larryn · 03-13-2008, 09:09 AM

Yessir, it's in a sticky post at the top of the tire and wheel forum.

white911 · 03-13-2008, 09:31 AM

Actually I think it's a good start; but concur that the drop is too severe and it looks like a strut failure in front. The lower mold line combines with the severe rake adds to the saggy look. The wheels are too big for sure and would not survive the DC area or anywhere else where pot holes are involved. It's clear that this would not work on the track or in any situation where handling is important. To achieve any kind of favorable handling with this much lowering the spindles would need to be raised (personal experience on two track cars). I like the lip extension and might be inclined to add a small splitter; but, that may not come off well.

ulrichd · 03-13-2008, 10:43 AM

This is how early car design sketches are always shown. Huge wheels with rubber band tires and no wheel gap. It gets people exited until they see the real thing on the showroom floor. Mind you the 135 with 18" wheels looks just fine to me.
