    Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm happy I can keep making the great performance wheels.

    I'll try and and get something into the boxes for the future. With the site being completed after the wheels arrived, it was difficult to predict possible url changes. I can mail you guys something if you'd like.

    check out my new 18x10" et25 :D


    and our custom 1 series 18x9.5" fitment, that will allow for 275's and possibly even 285's :D

    Hey Eddy,
    Looks good on the 1 series. Question: Do you have 19" sizes (19X9 and 19X10) of these wheels in 2010 M3 fitment?

    Thanks

      19" is not a track size.

      The 18x10" et25 fits perfectly on the rear and front of the E92 M3. or the 18x9.5" et35 can be used for a more conservative fit.

          I'm glad I can be of assistance. So many people comment on the wheels, yet I can't get anyone on 3 forums to shop me a sig lol.

          PM me for detailing services in the Longmont / Boulder Area in Colorado!

              What size tires are you running? It looks like you have a good amount of room left between the tire and the rear 1/4...

                Dude, you asked that before!



                :D

                I agree though, they do look like they fit very well. Volta, any fender mods to get those bad boys under there? The pics look vaguely familiar, where was your drive? I'm in the Prescott Valley area.

                  The rears were the only ones that were rubbing, all I had to do was roll the lip back a bit and the fit under perfectly. The pictures were from Prescott, i took a drive up there on the weekend to do some filming for my friends car camera company.

                    Thanks for the info, that's pretty impressive that decent size tires can be fitted so easily. Nice pics, now I understand the blue tape!

                              Thanks! I got some Yokohama S.Drive 215/40/17.
                              Here are the pics...

                              Cloth + Plastic Rim Guard + Plastic Bagging... nice packing APEX!!




                              New Rubber... Finally!!


                              This Hunter Road Force balancer does it job well!




                              After a couple... "high speed..." test runs on some good empty roads... I'm all smiles!


                              Those... "high speed..." runs and some twisties... were enough to wipe some of that pesky printing off the tires. ;)


                              The 215/40/17 mounts nice on a 8" wide wheel.


                              Nice n' just about flush...












                              I'm lovin the fact that these just bolt straight on, no spacers, or bore size adapters!

                              The vibration and rumbling that I thought was my new driveshaft, is gone!
                              This wheel and tire setup is smooth to well over 100+ mph... (Not that I encourage that type of driving... :P )

                              The guys over at Precision Auto ( and other drivers on the road... ) were impressed!
                              You gotta get them flyers out there Eddy! You got a great wheel here!!

                              Thanks Eddy, for execellent service!
                              Hope you guys like the pics!!

                                i've been wanting to sell them for a while now for something with a dish... but i'd rather just keep them since they are such a nice light wheel, plus then i can run RX7 4 pots! whats the consensus for running nice wheels in the winter??? :-/
