Sneak Peak

[Hick]

16X7 ET26 Fittipaldi OZ 5 Spokes, to be wrapped in 205/50 Goodyear F1 GSD3's.

Roughly what i going for, i ordered some white rouge and buffing wheels to give them a mirror finish, should look sweet. This is just done by hand, and the insets [between the spokes and sides of spokes] are done in silver. Looks good with and without the caps, but if i keep the cap ill have to get a 24mm roundel to complete the look.





*Knocked off and busted the free IS lip parking, its back on but only a few clips have anything to grab onto*

Beau has my old Kopis now, these were his wheels but in metallic grey with polished lips.

when you get it all mirrior finished, post pics of that too! lookin good, whos m3?

[bwanac]

ill have to wait and see before deciding... the center caps are UGH.

[adept]

Nice, but yah you have to get centercaps!

[mtechnik]

should look unique. keep us informed ! i think they will look all right because ur car is Bronzit

My personal preference would be to only get the lip polished & just refinish the spokes to original state.

[Jand3rson]

Not a fan of them, but we'll have to see what they look like when all is finished. They have a nice lip!

[Jhonno]

i like em.. kinda Azev like

[Teaguer]

Congrats on the new wheels ....one of my old favorites , I used to have a set or two bak in the day .

They might be considered a bit bling if polished though .
Painted centers with poilished lips always looks good on them.


Oh as for the AZEV reference ....ha !
These monolithics were out waaay before ATEV was ever thought of .

Stop fooling around with these ridiculous wheels, and go back to 15" Euros.

I have all the caps, could paint the centers silver, polished lip. Heres a couple pics, first of the wheels as i got them, then one test wheel [the black one] They were polished with white recesses.

M3 is my dads 88 Henna, and DD.

You're getting as bad as the albino!

Old man's M3?

[Streetspec_iS]

i like em, but if it were me, i'd rock em all black ... but thats just me.

[bimmers4life]

I think those look fuckin sick. I wouldn't polish em though. just re-finish them in siver

[Mystikal]

My winter wheels! My dad bought 14x6" versions of the exact same wheel back in '91 from Tirerack, I'm still using them as winters. Incredibly, the factory polished finish is still quite decent.



I posted that pic cause it makes me look hardcore.
