Happy birthday to myself. New wheels.

Hooy · 11-01-2012, 08:12 AM

I wanted light weight wheels with comfortable and affordable tires... pieced this together through Craigslist.

$300 style 157's
$300 5x Continental DWS (70-90%) + free mount/balance since the guy works at Discount Tire
$125 OEM TPMS

Result: Horrible fitment, turn in slop, uber comfort, better acceleration.

^with a 15mm spacer

Happy birthday but why with the wheels? Your ADV.1's were so clean! Is this just a temporary setup?

Sara · 11-01-2012, 08:14 AM

Happy Birthday

Sara · 11-01-2012, 08:15 AM

What are you doing with the ADV's?

I wanted a care free setup on the cheap that can serve as daily wheels and backups. This is perfect for my trips back and forth between cities or for pounding through Houston's shitty roads. & thanks!

Thanks! The ADV's are for sale and are off the car! I have had a lot of "close" buyers back out. It's winter so I'll just be patient

Sara · 11-01-2012, 08:55 AM

But they looked so nice

Remount!!!!!

on my car.

Rookie83 · 11-01-2012, 09:24 AM

Damn, if i would have known you were looking for stocks, i have these exact same wheels just sitting in my garage with factory bridgestone runflats. i would have let them go for next to nothing just to get rid of them

Blindside_137 · 11-01-2012, 10:08 AM

Remount!!!

But I feel you, I wouldn't want to be rolling around horrendous roads with expensive wheels like that. I understand the move.

and Happy Bday! I love a tasteful 328

gds52 · 11-01-2012, 10:23 AM

Happy birthday..
you went back to wheels which I just got rid of...lol.
As everyone else is saying, remount !!!
but hey, its your car and your daily drive, you know better.

Shinzi · 11-01-2012, 10:34 AM

Funny I have an Atlantic Blue Metallic coupe also... with the same wheels. Cept mine isnt moded yet and the wheels seem to be dipped in chrome.

mrj25 · 11-01-2012, 02:27 PM

NYC_e92 · 11-01-2012, 07:25 PM

Happy Bday. 157s are heavy and strong. They can handle good beatings

EJ_3 · 11-01-2012, 08:21 PM
