thompsac25's New Shoes! WARNING *Concave Content*

thompsac25 · 07-20-2015, 02:03 PM

Hey everyone!

Decided to change it up a bit! While I enjoyed the OEM+ look, I felt like it needed to stand out a bit more.

Before:
Avant Garde M355's
19x9 +35, 19x10 +38

After:

Forgestar F14 SDC Gloss Gunmetal
19x9.5 +22, 19x11 +25

Special thanks to Alan at Mod Bargains for the hookup! Great customer service and super knowledgeable.

Very nice! I like the new ones sooo much more!

wdeerfield · 07-20-2015, 02:51 PM

looks great. thats some stretch on the tires though. im still a huge fan of those now rare ag m355s though. you could keep it "oemish" by putting bmw caps on it.

May I ask where you got your side mirrors? Are they CF caps or a realistic looking CF vinyl? They look great

gotchuckz · 07-20-2015, 09:26 PM

haha we've been warned. sdc front and rear ftw.

it looks great my e90 twin.

New shoes set it off nicely, color of wheels and car just flow so nice. Congrats.

Yeah this is my first set of wheels with stretched tires. I like the look. Not sure how that has effected my handling, but it does look perrrty!

Rotary Formed. The styling was too good, I decided to look past the fact that they were true forged wheels - plus, they werent THAT expensive

I honestly dont remember where I got the carbon fiber side mirrors. They are actual CF caps, not vinyl wrap. Fitment is

You're the main reason I fell in love with these wheels! I went with the same tire setup as you too

Yours looks amazing!

Montego Blue FTW! I considered maybe doing a different wheel color (burst bronze or something), but decided to keep it clean

225/35 in front, 255/30 in rear. Definitely stretched, but it looks pretty nice!

Thanks yeah those sizes are my plan to my new wheels. I was kinda thinking between 265 or 255, but feel that the narrower is better choice especially when i air out.
