    My new 18" wheels...

    Hey guys-
    I have been working hard at my new job as a BMW Tech Apprentice, but I had some extra time/cash to mod my car this last week.
    The wheels are 18x8.5" BBS LM Replica's. Offset is a bit aggressive at ET15 but they fill the fenders and look awesome.
    I am running 225/40/18's all around with Bridgestone SO2's in front and Kumho 711's in the rear. I will have the 711's all around once I wear out the SO2's the rest of the way.

    Enjoy the pics!












    Comments welcome! (but keep the hating to yourself if you don't like 18" wheels.)

    PS: I am getting a set of stock 15's to get some sticky tires on so I have a light set of wheels to drive hard on. These are all show. 8)

    Replicas? Kumho 711's?! I sure hope they're just for show! :P

    Just messing with you man, but watch out for potholes.

              I like those a lot more than your old ones. Good to hear you are succeeding with your job :up:

                  wow man.. thats nice. Were your bumpers filled in when you got them, or is that all custom? I was toying with the idea on the plastic bumpers. Its definitely not something you see everyday. Hows the job going? Ive been seriously condsidering taking the bmw training program.

                          I say god damn.... those are some fricken' hot wheels.

                          My only suggestion would be to get some wider tires on there, maybe 245/35.

                          Who makes those wheels? And more importantly, do they come in 4x100? I can't imagine how awesome those would look with powdercoated centers.
