New e92 M-Sport in awful weather (sorry)

avop · 01-26-2008, 07:37 AM

My car is only one week old and it looks like this. Totally in love with the Finnish weather

.

I will post normal pics of my car as soon as there is some nice weather, so I can make the official "Hi I'm new and here is my car" thread

Here are few crappy photos taken with my camera phone, so quality is what it is.. Enjoy!

UPDATE: there are pictures of the clean car on page 3

Congrats with your new nice looking ride

I really liked your winter wheels. How is the wheels to drive with in the Nordic winter ?

M3EST · 01-26-2008, 08:55 AM

Winter wheels are 18*8,5 with 225/40/18 Nokian Hakkapeliitta tires. They work just fine, and look great! My friends actually thought they were 19"

8j wide rims would have been better than 8,5j, but I didn't do my homework when I was buying, so I ended up with 8,5j. My bad.

They are a bit streched, but IMHO just fine.

Ok, thanks. I will order those wheels ASAP but then with 8j wide

Nice one! Just got my e91 330xi two weeks ago, hating the weather ever since..

Except today, when the sun did shine a bit in the evening and took some pics.. I just ordered yesterday 19" M6 wheels for summer, can't wait!

BoostedBMW · 01-26-2008, 11:27 AM

There is no way in hell I would take my week old car into a snow storm.
