So FUCK, the wheels I want have a 10 week wait and I'm told they're usually late at that, so I may get something else for this year (if they can find the fit and colour and style in inventory, apparently that's a challenge for the 11" wide rears) that's not as premium and order the dream wheels over the winter.

I don't hate BBS, I don't like lips and I like concave wheels to an extent. I actually thought about picking up these (local used) but they're 20's (little too big) and the wrong colour.

wowowowowow, that would look so hot if you have them powdercoated in gloss black with a red bbs center cap. FUUUU

Maybe just do plastidip to preserve resale value, those are nice wheels.

That dark grey anthracite or whatever BMW uses on some stock rims would look killer on those.

eddie, ya those are ok but $$$$$$$$ and the rubber is toast. For that $$ I'd want the right width and offset.

I've found something I think. Will post pics if it works out. It's nothing that's been discussed here.

Titty those are sweet wheels, but at over $8000 for the 4 rims I don't think so. I've been dealing with simply A LOT over the last week. Either wait times (10+ weeks) or no inventory has been an issue (colour, offset, width, style). I've missed out on a few things in the US I've liked. I managed to "firm up" something else locally tonight.

ok.

pictures don't do them justice IMO. And I know, it's filthy. Yes, they're real Volk's, wrapped in new Michelin Pilot Super Sports. 285 in the rear, 255 up front.

you should really consider painting it a florescent colour. Gotta keep up with the times.

The Forgestar's I want have too long of a wait (maybe September?), and anything I sort of liked that was a cast wheel would have had to be refinished (in part, no sets of 4 available in North America) to get a full set in my fitment/style/colour. The TE-37's were the compromise while I order Forgestar's over the winter while having a set I can sell next year if I want, rather than sitting on shitty cast wheels.

not bad, for bmw i prob wouldnt do volk (only cause seen on so many jap cars, and ive had them before).

also not a fan of black on white...if they were a nice deep metallic gray, 'hyperblack' whatever you call it or chrome then unnnfff yes...looks good on white.

Thanks. Going to go clean it up soon, stickers and caps about to be ordered.

Let me also take the opportunity to say:

Lightweight wheels + good rubber >>>>>>>> cast wheels + descent rubber
(TE-37 + Michelin PSS >>>> VMR VB3 + Falken FK452)

Ride quality, throttle response, noise and harshness, EVERYTHING is better.

LOL spray and rub....no happy ending

from the looks of the pics, your car needs a "new" car detail. basically try to get a used car back to looking like it was new.

Fuck tell me about it! I had to compound my car 2x and polish 2x to get the paint back to "new". Had to wet sand quite a few scratches too (OCD issues).
