Any Colour You Like...... As Long As It's Black!

I think the black would tie in with the door mirrors, also if you could get the black front headlight covers and smoked side repeaters it would all work well

Anyone know where I can find dimentions for the stock 4th gen rims?

Titsy · February 18, 2007, 07:32:01 PM

Ok, I've been perswaded away from the black rims, and don't really like the shape of the gunmetal ones, but do like the finish....

So how about these...

They are a bit more sensible on ruber costs too, coming in at 17x8.5", where the stock rims were 16x8"

Wrong, unless you now own a 3 series

Wash your mouth out...

What is it then, are they to modern and sharp for the car?

Its the skinny 5 spoke mate, they were done to death on the new shape 3 series bmw's by the 'boys'

The fat ones (which Shifty favours) just look like there was little though process in there design, they just look old IMO.... Where as these ones looked a bit more crisp, although I wasn't totally convinced over the amount of brakes that you would be able to see through them....

If I could get hold of the original ones I was looking at in something other than Black and Chrome I think I would have made my mind up by now...

I still say the originals in black would work well with the car. You already have black mirrors and black sail panels.

You could always have them painted a different colour

pretty wheels.....

Titsy · March 24, 2007, 03:21:42 PM

Not cheap though...

$1000 before Shipping, Duty, VAT, and putting rubber on...

But they do look spanky...

EDGE · March 24, 2007, 05:34:03 PM

admitidly, they're probably about 20's, and I lowered it a bit....
