A different look

StillSpoolin · 06-09-2015, 01:56 PM

My e92, new wheels and tires (went from 19" to 18"). Tried for a different kind of look, probably not everyone's cup of tea but I love it

Let me know what you think!

Hmm not sure what i think about the green stuff really...not my cup of tea for sure

justanotherdude · 06-09-2015, 02:05 PM

Not bad. Definitely something I haven't seen yet (as far as color goes). I like it!

Thumbs up from me!

Alen E90 · 06-09-2015, 02:17 PM

Your new wheels are definitely my cup of tea!

That's a very nice shade of green IMO!

Thanks for sharing!

Dos Plunder · 06-09-2015, 03:40 PM

I like that you went a different path than a lot of other people go! Keep doing you man!

StevenY. · 06-09-2015, 04:14 PM

Probably not something I would do personally but I think it actually looks really good.

Twin_Snails · 06-09-2015, 05:57 PM

That looks pretty cool, definetly out of the ordinary.

bimmette · 06-09-2015, 08:52 PM

Hmmm, not bad. Definitely different

SAADTHESAV · 06-09-2015, 08:59 PM

just curious, how much did it cost?

don't really like it, but hey it's your car!

Ya I've had a couple people comment just in parking lots and stuff, seems to be hit or miss. Appreciate the input though

Got them powder coated locally for 400$. Originally they were a really dull gun metal grey. Wanted something that would stand out a little more that hopefully wasn't to bright and in your face.

What brand if wheels are these ? Are they lm reps or varrstoen ?

wdeerfield · 06-10-2015, 06:34 AM

interesting color choice given you have red interior. its a brave color for sure.

steve_eclipse · 06-10-2015, 07:02 AM

Green not my cup of coffee, to each their own!

Your car and all that matters is what you think.

#Tee · 06-10-2015, 07:30 AM

its not that bad..but the mud flaps reminds me of flappy vaginas

Tim603 · 06-10-2015, 10:15 AM

Props for being original! Nice to see something different every once in a while. ^lol Tee

I hate to say this, but they are XXR 521....please don't hate me. They were a really good price and with the way the roads are around here I really wanted to get some taller tires. Also I wasn't a fan of the summers the 19's had (switched over to all-seasons). Canada eh

Agreed! Wasn't entirely sure it would work out but seems that at least some people agree with me

Still appreciate the feedback, thanks!

You just made me spit out my coffee

Not a huge fan of the mudflaps, but it helps protect the paint a little in the winter when roads are like this (and no my fender is not dented)

I saw your car somewhere on Instagram maybe a day or two ago. I kinda like it! What are the specs on the wheels? I want a similar set up.

classyfast · 06-10-2015, 03:17 PM

Love the look man!! I have 19" esm LM reps and I'm debating a red powder coat for my AW over coral e92 lci msport! I love this green though. Well done man, looks badass.

Did the powdercoating person have any concern about it not sticking or staying on the bolts in the wheels over time? I assume he just sandblasted the shit out of them and coated??? Let me know.

classyfast · 06-10-2015, 03:18 PM

Shot I forgot, where did you get those mudflats from?? Oem part?

Bmw_Crazy · 06-10-2015, 04:33 PM

Hulk rims cool!
