I put the center caps in after the pics

Michelin X-ice 205.50-17 and 225.45-17.

Propably performance rims to next winter since i hope to change summer rims this summer.

Very nice! Love the look of those wheels!

Taki · 02-07-2009, 04:39 PM

Did the swap today. Only ordered the winter set after I was stuck at the bottom of my driveway for a day and a half. Oops. Anyway, ordering so late meant I couldn't get my first choices on wheels or tires, but it worked out fairly well. I was going to wash the car before taking a pic, but I think being covered in salt makes for a more accurate image of winter.

Pirelli Snowsport 240s on MSW Type 15s.

Here's a couple of shots of my new Sport Edition A7's with Dunlop 3D's (225/45/17) from TireRack. I picked up the roundel center caps and BMW logo valve stem caps from Dan @ United. Not too bad looking IMHO...

Now, my updated winter set with the BMW center caps:

Has anyone used the Drag Dr-37's on their 1'er and has pics to post. I like the looks of the mat black DR-37 for a winter wheel. The price is right....$110 for 17" wheel at Discount Tire.

I just got my 1er back in November and ordered these wheels in Hyper Silver but since Discount Tire screwed up my order I'm still waiting on them. I'll have pics of them on a Alpine White. I'm trying to figure out what size OEM center caps fit these wheels. If anyone knows or can direct me to a site that has them I would much appreciate it. Thanks.

tritonx · 12-31-2010, 03:08 PM

They are Motegi Racging wheels MR18.

This was taken after a 4hours drive(250km) in a light blizzard. There was a half inch thick ice bra on the front end.

I got the same exact set-up in route right now from Tire Rack...... Thanks for reassuring me that I made the right choice, they look great!
